*Since this upcoming week is Christmas, there won't be a menu posted next Sunday. I should be back the Sunday after that. Merry Christmas everyone!*
Sunday: 5 Ingredient White Chicken Chili
·
We had
this delicious chili for lunch after church.
I put everything in the crockpot around 9:00am, and it was perfect when
we ate lunch at 12:30. I had some turkey
from Thanksgiving in the freezer, so I actually diced that up and used it
instead of chicken this time. We
couldn’t even tell the difference. I
topped ours with avocado, tortilla chips, and shredded cheese. It really hit the spot on a cold day. (http://www.gimmesomeoven.com)
Monday: Taco Pizza at Mom’s House
·
We went
to my mom’s house on Monday night for dinner, and she made this delicious taco
pizza from Life in the Lofthouse. After cooking the pizza, we topped ours with
some fresh chopped lettuce to give it a little more crunch. Chad added a little more spice to his with
some Frank’s Red Hot. The kids enjoyed
this as well! After dinner, we all went
to look at Christmas lights. We love
Christmas!
Tuesday: Chicken Nuggets, French Fries, &
Spinach Salad
·
I had a
ladies Christmas party this evening, so I made a quick dinner of frozen chicken
nuggets and French fries for Chad and the kids before I left. I added a spinach salad with apples, olive
oil, and balsamic vinegar to give a little bit of green to the plate. J
Wednesday: Breakfast
·
Chad was
out of town, which almost always means breakfast! This time…biscuits, bacon, eggs, & berries!
Thursday: Grilled Soy-Orange Chicken, Roasted Diced
Veggies, & Yeast Rolls
·
Chad’s
parents always come over on Thursdays, and this day they stayed for
dinner! Earlier in the afternoon, I marinated
chicken in orange juice, soy sauce, fresh ground pepper, olive oil, and garlic
powder. Chad grilled it for us. I also diced up 2 zucchini, 2 yellow squash,
and 3 sweet potatoes. It sounds like a
lot, but I wanted some leftovers! I
tossed it all with olive oil and season salt and roasted it at 425 for 25
minutes. I stirred everything around
after the first 15 minutes. Yum!
Friday: Leftovers for Me
·
As I
said, I wanted leftovers! Chad was
hunting this weekend, and the boys were staying the night with my mom. So Payton and I enjoyed the leftover chicken
and vegetables from the night before. J
Saturday: A Happy Meal and Take-Out Pad Thai Night
·
Chad was
still off hunting, and Ranger had a fever and wasn’t feeling well. He said he wanted a cheeseburger for dinner,
so I picked up Happy Meals (their fave) for the kids and some Pad Thai from a
local Thai restaurant for me. Everyone
was happy!
