Week 271 Menu

Hi friends!  Happy Thursday!

I'm thinking maybe I should rethink the day that I menu plan.  I usually try to do it on Monday, but haven't been very good at it lately.  I think Thursday is my favorite day of the week.  Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday end up being super busy and I don't have much time to spend on the computer.  Thursday end up being my "catch up" day. Anyway...

We are in the middle of spring break right now.  We took a quick trip to Utah last week.  We visited lots of family.  And we got to attend a session of general conference, where our church leaders speak...always uplifting and wonderful!


My little girl turned ten this week too!  Can't believe I've been a mom for ten years.  Crazy!\

I have lots of things that I want to blog about.  Hopefully I'll find some time to post them.  Kids, laundry, dinner, house projects, etc. seem to take priority over blogging these days.


Menu time:

Monday:  we were on the road

Tuesday:  beef and broccoli

Wednesday:  ham, funeral potatoes, cloud light crescent rolls,

Thursday:  bistro chicken

Friday: Asian BBQ chicken, whole grain cous cous


Saturday:  beef stew

Sunday:  manicotti

All right...That's what we've been eating and are going to eat this week.  How about you?  If you haven't menu planned this week, feel free to post what you've had for dinner so far.

Have a great weekend!

One Hour Rolls

These rolls are amazing!  I've been making these rolls since 2001 when I was a newlywed and my sister-in-law shared the recipe with me.  The rolls are light, fluffy, easy to make and they only take one hour!  And delicious too!   I've made these rolls more times than I can count, so I've perfected the art of making them.  Here are some step-by-step instructions with pictures for you. Here's what you'll need.  I buy pretty much all of the ingredients in this recipe at Sam's club, thus the huge containers.  You need warm water, yeast, oil, sugar, salt, egg and flour. In the mixer bowl, add warm water (not hot), oil, sugar and yeast.  Mix together. After ten or fifteen minutes the yeast mixture should be puffed up like this.  Time to add the salt and beaten egg. Then mix in the flour.  (I've used a mixture of half wheat and half white flour successfully.) Keep adding flour until the dough is manageable.  It ...

Chicken Angelo

Don't forget to enter the Whirley Pop giveaway .  It ends tomorrow! Am I the only person that asks their friends what they're making for dinner all the time?  That's kind of why I started this blog, because I want to know what my friends are making for dinner. The other day I asked my friend, Juli (who is great cook), what she was making for dinner.  She told me she was making Chicken Angelo.   Then she told me what's in it.  I knew I had to try it too because she has some picky eaters at her house like I do.   I figured if they'll eat it then maybe it was worth a try at my house. This Chicken Angelo pasta has my favorite things, artichoke hearts and mushrooms in it.  But don't be fooled into thinking that my family likes these things too.  Because they don't.  They won't touch an artichoke or mushroom with a ten foot pole. That being said, my family loved this pasta dish.  They even gave me the go ahead to make it again. ...

The Best French Bread I've Ever Made

This is the best french bread I've ever made.  I got this recipe from my friend, Nikki, who gave us some of this bread as a thank you for my hubby helping them move a piano.  I remember it being delicious and we gobbled it up fast.  I was intimidated for some reason by the recipe and waited a few years before I made it. We needed some bread for to make some turkey, provolone, avocado sandwiches, so I made some of this bread and it was perfect!  We sliced one loaf like they do at Subway.  Then later I made normal shaped sandwiches with the rest of the bread.  Delicious... light and fluffy and yummy! Update 2/22/12: This is still my favorite bread after making it for a year! It turns out perfect every time and it's gone in a flash! printable recipe French Bread recipe from my friend, Nikki Yield: 2 loaves   Ingredients 2 c. warm water 1 pkg (or 1 heaping Tbsp.) yeast 1/4 c. granulated sugar ...
