What's everyone cooking these days?
How was everyone's Easter? Are there lots of leftovers?
Friday, we ordered in pizza.
Saturday: chicken sandwiches, oven baked steak fries and coleslaw
Sunday: we continued our Easter dinner tradition with dinner at the Outback
Monday: Target has Hormel marinated porkloins on sale for $7.99, and you get a Country Crock side dish for free, so I bought the Amber Ale porkloin and mashed potatoes (this was my first time eating them from a container, lol, and they were quite tasty!), sweet carrots
Tuesday: leftovers of porkloin and my Outback dinner
Wednesday: Cheesy Chicken Green Bean Casserole, although I might substitute cream cheese for the heavy cream and mayonnaise. Side of rice. (I've never tried this recipe, but it looks delicious!)
Thursday: leftovers, I hope
Friday: hot dogs and tater tots
Saturday: Not sure yet
Sunday: I think DH is taking the oldest to a drag race as part of his birthday gift, so they'll be gone all day. I'll find something to do with the younger two.
Re: What's everyone cooking these days?
We are on Polish food from mom this week. We were OOT for Easter and Mom sent us home with her stuffed cabbage and we ate that last night. Tonight is kielbasa we were sent home with and sides of mac and cheese and peas. I will have to think of what else to do with the kielbasa for the rest of the week.

Seriously, it's been bad. I mean, really bad. We've had stuff going on during the week which just throws me into a downward spiral of feeling like I can't cook at all that week. we've been out of town the past few weekends, but no plans this weekend, so I really need to crack down and make it to the grocery store for some real shopping (as opposed to just the quick trips of running in and grabbing milk and some type of fruit) and get back to menu planning.

We got back late Friday and had costco dumplings for dinner.
Saturday I made homemade pizza dough and topped it with roasted tomatoes and fresh mozzarella.
Sunday we went to my mom's and had ham and kielbasa
Monday was leftover pizza and salad
Tonight we're using Steve's free big burrito birthday entree and going to Casbah
Wednesday is leftover ham and kielbasa with roasted potatoes and salad
I have to go to Baltmore for a funeral Thursday/Friday so Steve and the boys are on their own then.
