This weekend I finally flipped through some magazines from a friend that had lots of recipes--Real Simple and Clean Eating. I love Real Simple, but sometimes my kids don't care for the recipes, but I think found some good ones.
The first one (fresh tomato-sausage pasta) was actually just an ad, but it looked so good I had to google it. And the last one (slow cooker chicken tacos) was something my same friend had made at a party Friday night. So, thanks friend! Although tomorrow morning at 7am I won't be thanking her because we are working out with the trainer. So, while you are still in bed or getting the kids ready for school, I may be passed out on a concrete floor under a pile of weights. I'll try to stay positive.
Here is our menu for the week. All of it makes me happy! Make sure you check out http://www.orgjunkie.com/ for Menu Plan Monday to find more exciting new recipes. That is how I found the casserole listed below. It's a fantastic resource for menu planning.
Fresh Tomato-Sausage Pasta and salad/fresh vegetables with dip
Homestyle Chicken Pot Pie with fruit
Slow Cooker Chicken Tacos
(or at least that's what I'm calling it.
I am tossing chicken breast, salsa, black beans and corn into the slow cooker)
Happy menu planning!

I do the slow cooker chicken tacos, minus the black beans because nobody here eats beans, but I add 1/4 to 1/2 brick of cream cheese at the end. So good!
ReplyDeleteHmmmm, I will probably be adding cream cheese! Thanks!
