Week 316 Menu

Hi guys!  Did you have a great weekend?  Ours was busy, but fun.  Yesterday was a much needed "day of rest".  After church we watched The Sound of Music as a family.  My kiddos had never seen it, and now we're all singing "Do Re Mi."  (And to my FitBit step counting friends, I only got 6,897 steps yesterday...my all time low.  Kind of nice and relaxing!)

I'm excited for this week, because my sister and her kiddos are coming to visit!  I'm super excited to see them and to have our first house guests.  Then we kick off spring break this weekend.  Can't wait!  First we have to survive some major after school craziness.  :)

My kids had last Friday off from school, so we went on a hike together.  Now they can't wait to take their cousins on it.  (And I got a ton of FitBit stairs from it too.)


Menu time...

Monday:  chicken tetrazinni


Wednesday:  drip beef sandwiches

Thursday:  pork honey lime enchiladas

Friday:  pizza

Saturday:  dinner before the General Women's broadcast with my daughter.  I'm looking forward to it!  She is too!  


What's on your menu this week?  I love hearing what you're making.  Gives me inspiration.  :)

Did you see my post about FitBit last week?  I'm still loving it.  Got a little competitive on the last day of the challenge I was doing with my friends on Friday.  Felt good!

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. ...
