April 10-16, 2016

Sunday:  One Pan Cheesy Smoked Sausage Pasta

  This one from Yellow Bliss Road has become a family favorite, and it’s so easy!  J




Monday:  Scrambled Eggs, Grilled Dove, Fruit, & Whole Wheat Oatmeal Banana Bread

  Chad was in Tulsa for work, so the kids and I made breakfast for dinner.  Chad had grilled some dove for lunch after church on Sunday, so we had the leftover dove with our eggs, fruit, and some homemade, whole wheat banana bread.  This recipe from Baked By Rachel is my favorite!

Whole Wheat Oatmeal Banana Bread
A healthier banana bread recipe, using whole wheat flour and old fashioned oatmeal!
Ingredients:
  • 1/2C applesauce
  • 1/2C granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2C bananas, mashed
  • 1C white whole wheat flour
  • 1C all purpose flour
  • 1C old fashioned oats
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tp salt
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine wet ingredients. In a second medium bowl, combine dry ingredients. Slowly mix dry mixture into the wet. Whisk until ingredients are fully incorporated and no streaks remain. Pour batter into a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Lightly sprinkle with additional oats if desired. Bake for 50-55 minutes or until center is set. Cool completely before slicing. Store in an airtight container. Serve with your favorite jams and spreads.


Tuesday:  Grilled Cheese with Fresh Fruit and Veggies



  I mean, it was National Grilled Cheese Day for crying out loud!  What else would I have made?  J


Wednesday:  Fish Tacos, Brown Rice, & Fruit



  We had a quick, easy dinner before heading to our small group.  I made some Tortilla Crusted Tilapia from Costco and warmed some Tortilla Land tortillas for a simple meal of fish tacos.


Thursday:  Dinner Out


Friday:  Dinner with Nonnie!


Saturday:  Pizza Night


  Chad had been gone for a few nights, and he wasn’t coming home until close to bedtime on this evening.  We had 2 baseball games in the afternoon, so I called Dominos and let them make dinner for us!  We brought our pizza home and had our dinner on the back porch.  Everyone was happy!
