Meal Plan This Week.
Sunday - Lasagna with Caesar Salad. I use this recipe from my Betty Crocker cookbook. I'm sure there are much more complicated ones out there, but when I'm looking for a classic recipe I always look to Betty. She's never steered me wrong.

Monday - Crockpot Carnitas Rice Bowls. We've gotten a carnitas roast from Aldi a few times before and it is SO good and so easy. You just toss it all in the crockpot and cook like a normal roast.

The … Continue reading Applesauce Cake with Brown Butter Frosting.

The Friday Post. [vol. 6]
Weeeeee! This week went fast, didn't it? Or maybe it didn't and it just went by in a bit of a blur for me. We've finally made it to Pizza night over here, and I can't wait. I have a confession. I have not gotten it together enough the last few weeks to make homemade … Continue reading The Friday Post. [vol. 6]
Meal Plan This Week.
This week’s meal plan for the curious! Monday - BLTs with tater tots and salad - I always try to keep Monday nights easy, so I’ll make the bacon in the oven (at 400 on a foil lined pan for about 20 minutes), slice up some heirloom tomatoes, add iceberg lettuce because it has the … Continue reading Meal Plan This Week.
