Sharing my weekly Menu...to help you plan yours ♥

Sunday    
Dr Pepper Pulled Pork   Pioneer Woman's Recipe found here served with a quick pasta salad that we also found in my favorite PW cookbook ♥  Meghan is in charge of Pasta Salads at my house because she has a knack for it.  She pretty much wings it based on this  Spicy Pasta Salad from our Beloved Ree Drummond...the Pioneer Woman!

Monday
Left Overs.  Y'all...I'm just keeping it real with you.

Tuesday
Copycat La Madeline Tomato Basil Soup:  La Madeline Copycat Recipe found here... and I make these crazy good "adult grilled cheese's" that they were sampling at Kroger a few  weeks ago.  Basically, they sell this Deli Dressing by Boar's Head.  You put some of that oil in the skillet in place of butter.  You use a deli mustard on the bread, sweet ham, and Montery cheese...then grill.  To. Die. For.  
Seriously.

Wednesday   
Tequila Lime Chicken:  another Pioneer Woman recipe found here... served with homemade black beans and Mexican rice.  I haven't made it but I hear it is fantastic.  The link provided comes from the Plain Chicken webpage...who I also love!

Thursday
Potato Leek Soup: an Irish Potato Soup I am trying, recipe found here...I have never made this but I am currently LOVING Irish food and plan to try this one out.

Friday   
White Chicken Enchilada's:  You guessed it... Another ♥ Pioneer Woman Recipe to found here... I have no idea what I'm serving with it but I'm excited.  Another new recipe to try out!

Saturday   
Fend For YO'Self  Night:  Although, this could end up a lot of ways.  It is typically is the night I try to empty the fridge and I plan for the next week!

Happy Cooking!

Proof that ANYBODY can bake homemade bread...or Super Easy Homemade Yeast Bread

Easy Yeast Bread Y'all, I don't know about you but I love the smell of fresh bread.  If it happens to be homemade bread...all the better.    I wish I knew where exactly this recipe came from but I don't...maybe it actually came from Pampered Chef?  I don't know.  I just know that I personally did NOT come up with it...although...that is my loaf in the picture.  I am certain you want the recipe?  Yes?   Here Goes... Easy Yeast Bread DO NOT PRE-HEAT YOUR OVEN.   Ingredients: 5-6 cups all purpose flour ( you can even use whole wheat in place of a cup or two) 2 Tbls dry yeast. ( Regular yeast.  NOT rapid rise or any variation of Rapid!) 2 Tbls sugar (I have only used white sugar) 1 Tbls salt 2 cups HOT Water  (120-130 degrees)  CRITICAL or the yeast won't behave 1 Deep Covered Baker or Dutch Oven Rockcrok ( I prefer the DCB myself)  2 Large Mixing Bowls and a cloth...

Kids in the Kitchen

Do you let your kids cook?  I am learning that teaching your kids to cook is apparently a dying art.  Huh???  How on earth can that be a thing?  How are they supposed to...you know...take care of themselves?  I find it mind boggling.  I don't always let mine take over in the kitchen but I definitely work with them!  Yes, sometimes the food is less than wonderful...but guess what...they are learning a skill.  A skill that we all need in life.  Don't we?   I suppose this is why there is a fast food joint on every corner?  Well, my girls love to cook.  They really like finding Pinterest recipes and following the directions exactly...to see how it turns out.  This picture is a salad they made not long ago.  It was freaking delicious!   We found this Chicken Avocado Caprese Salad that someone pinned from  Cafe Delights  and it is absolutely worth the try!  Of course, we used some of my favori...
Getting to know you better... Do you have a favorite meal?  A "go to" comfort food that immediately puts you in your Grandma's kitchen?  I have two.  Yes, two.  It's OK to have two.  One my MaMaw made me and the other my Papaw made for me.  Today I am going to tell you about Fried Toast. My grandparents lived all the way at the end of Broadwell Road near Rodessa, Louisiana.   When I say at the end of it...I mean it.  The road ended and you drove through a pasture to get to their house.  It had a big metal gate.  I can't tell you how many times that I got in trouble for swinging on that gate.  I just couldn't resist the temptation.  I can remember MaMaw telling me that I couldn't go past the barbwire fence in the very back of the pasture...what I didn't realize at the time was that she lived just about on the State line.  I'm fairly certain that I might have crossed over that fence a time or town with my friends....
