Here is a super-easy way to make Brussels Sprouts. I used some of the Brussels Sprouts I got with my order from Southwestern Produce a couple of weeks ago.
I’ll be trying out some different recipes as I really haven’t made Brussels Sprouts unless it was the microwave bags, a whole lot. These were pretty good though. This recipe can actually be adapted to almost any kind of raw/frozen veggies. Try out our Maple Glazed Brussels Sprouts recipe. Continue reading “Oven Roasted Brussels Sprouts”
This recipe is one of those super easy simple recipes. You could also substitute white rice or even wild rice if you like. Continue reading “Easy Pork Chops with Rice”
This is yet another meal I’ve made out of some clearance items from the deli. You could use biscuits or toast in place of the Croissants too.
I was lucky to grab one for myself before the kids devoured the double batch I made! These would also work well as a freezer meal! Continue reading “Cheesy Breakfast Croissants”
This is our basic meal plan for the week. Sometimes we will switch the days around if I forgot to set something out or put something in the crock pot. Please feel free to use this or change it around to suit your family’s needs.
I have started trying to do easier meals on days that I have square dancing obligations. This helps me to be able to put a nice meal on the table without feeling guilty about having some much needed ‘Mommy Time’. Some of these meals may also help with those that have busy or irregular schedules due to work or extracurricular activities.
I do have ‘Snacks/Desserts’ listed as well. I always try to keep a bowl of fresh fruit out on the counter or table for the kids to snack on. Sometimes I will make a special snack or treat for us to enjoy.
