Sorry I missed an entire week. We had some very important company...my mom and her boyfriend. It was a joy to have them here, but it threw my schedule off track and I didn't get around to updating my blog. In honesty though, we ate almost every meal out, so there wasn't really much for me to post anyways.
I do have two recipies to share that we did last week which we enjoyed. One was a grilled veggie recipe that my mom and Steve brought back to me from a trip that they took. It's very simple and makes a bunch of veggies. In a foil pan, combine any cut & chunked veggie that you like. Root veggies are great such as carrots, potatoes, red potatoes, onions, cabbage (I know this is not a root veggie, but I've heard it was great in this dish), 1 of 2 sticks of butter, salt & pepper, & some meat seasoning salt. Cover with foil and put on the grill for 30 minutes or so. EnJoY!
The other is called Chicken Raleigh (This recipe makes a very large dish and I halved it for us)
2 1/2 cups cooked chicken or turkey, chopped
2 boxes frozen chopped broccoli, thawed
1 pkg herb dressing mix
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
2 Tbs butter
Sauce
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup chicken broth and/or white wine
1 can cream of mush soup (I was out, so I used Cheddar Cheese soup & it was really good)
1 cup Mayo
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 Tbs. lemon juice
salt and pepper
In a bowl, combine sauce ingredients, whisk together. Line bottom of casserole dish with broccoli and chicken, cover with sauce. Combine bread crumbs, herb dressing, parmesan cheese, and butter and sprinkle over the top. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 45 minutes. EnJoY!
BUT, I'm back and ready to go with this weeks' menu and grocery list. We have 3 nights this week with baseball games, so we have to have 3 quick meal nights. One of which we will be eating out. It's just too crazy of a day to try to cook that night. I don't see anything wrong with eating out every now and again especially when you have a crazy busy day.
