Menu Monday + Paula Deen’s Influence! {6.22.20}
One of the best things that came out of the COVID-19/Coronavirus months had to be Paula Deen's Quarantine Cooking series on YouTube! It is almost like you're pulling a chair up to her kitchen counter and sipping sweet tea while she cooks in front of you. I've spent a lot of time doing that in… Continue reading Menu Monday + Paula Deen’s Influence! {6.22.20}
Menu Monday + Summertime Sides {6.8.20}
Now that we're basically in summertime, I try to keep supper meals easy and light. I make a main dish, whether it's all meat (steaks) or some kind of one-pan meal (enchiladas, meatball subs) and then use whatever fresh produce I have on hand to go with it. That might be peaches, watermelon, cucumbers, zucchini… Continue reading Menu Monday + Summertime Sides {6.8.20}

Two Week Meal Plan {Menu Monday 4.13.20}
Cooking is so much fun right now! While I'm working from home, I am able to prep meals early in the day or cook things in the oven that would normally take too long for a weekday. It's so nice to make a menu knowing that I'm cooking for both of us every night and… Continue reading Two Week Meal Plan {Menu Monday 4.13.20}
Two Week Meal Plan {Menu Monday 3.23.20}
"Well that escalated quickly." That phrase applies to SO many things right now, am I right? Normally in March Paul is on the road with sports most evenings, so I plan about two "big" meals each week and then fend for myself the rest of the week. When it's just me, I have a lot… Continue reading Two Week Meal Plan {Menu Monday 3.23.20}
Menu Monday + New Side Dish {3.9.20}
Even though my husband is a very picky eater, sometimes he surprises me! The last time I was at Aldi I noticed a new item in the Italian food section - Roasted Garlic Risotto. At less than $2 I thought it was worth a shot! I've never made risotto from scratch but I know from… Continue reading Menu Monday + New Side Dish {3.9.20}
Menu Monday + Paul’s Favorite Dessert {2.24.20}
This is actually more like two week's worth of meals instead of just one week. Sometimes we have weeks where I only end up cooking a couple times instead of 6-7 nights like I planned. I looked back on my planner this weekend and realized I only made 3 out of the seven meals I… Continue reading Menu Monday + Paul’s Favorite Dessert {2.24.20}
