Sunday: Crockpot Creamy Chicken Taco Chili
·
This was
a perfect soup to throw in the crockpot before church and cook on low until we
were home for lunch. I used a rotisserie
chicken that I had shredded and placed in the freezer several days ago and just
put it in the crockpot frozen. Since I
was using already cooked chicken (instead of raw, frozen chicken breasts as the
recipe originally calls for), I also added one can of vegetable broth. This helped the soup stay creamy and not
dry. We all loved it, and it made
excellent leftovers for a couple of days!

Monday: Chicken Strips with Roasted Broccoli
& Carrots
·
Soccer
and softball night! As always, a quick
easy meal is a MUST!
Tuesday: Oh My Goodness Chicken, Roasted Parmesan
Green Beans, & Bread
·
I came
across this on Pinterest (of course), and it seemed easy enough to try! It was tasty, and plain enough that the boys
had no problem with it. Chad & I
added Frank’s Red Hot to ours to give it more of a kick! I might play with the flavors a bit the next
time we try this. (http://theenchantedcook.blogspot.com/)
Wednesday: Elbow Pasta with Turkey Sausage &
Marinara, Caesar Salad, & Warm Garlic Bread
·
I had
some turkey sausage in the freezer that I thawed out and browned. After draining it, I added it to marinara
sauce and then poured it over prepared whole wheat, elbow macaroni pasta (my
kids’ favorite). I rounded out the meal
with Caesar salad and warm, toasty, whole wheat garlic bread. Yum!
Thursday: Burger Night!
Friday: Birthday Party!
·
We
attended a friend’s birthday party, so we ate dinner there. J
Saturday: Baked Tacos, Cilantro Lime Rice, &
Spinach Salad
·
I haven’t
made these in quite a while, but Chad is always happy when I do! They are really delicious, and they are also
quite easy to prepare. It’s a great way
for our kids to eat tacos, as baking them helps keep them all “stuck” together
and also softens the shells so there’s less mess. It’s definitely a nice way to change up taco
night. I did use her recipe for homemade
taco seasoning, but I bought my taco shells from the store. J (http://www.onegoodthingbyjillee.com/)
Cilantro Lime Rice
·
This tasty rice could not be easier. Just make rice as you normally would, then
add butter, cilantro, lime juice & zest, & a little garlic salt. Yum!
