Monday- Braised Beef Short Ribs, mashed potatoes

Tuesday- Lemon Rosemary Chicken with risotto and broccoli
Stuff your chicken with a few halved lemons. Put rosemary leaves under the skin, and rub the bird with olive oil and salt and pepper. Cook on 450 for about 25 minutes. Drop temp to 400 for another hour or so. Mine ended up being undercooked, so I needed to add it in another 30 minutes. Always use a oven thermometer or a meat thermometer.

Our cupboards were getting quite empty, so we had an epic family trip to the grocery store. I had no real plan when we went. This happens occasionally; I feel inspired by what is on sale, what the husband and girls request, or just looks good. Here is what is on the meal plan for this week.

Sun- Sloppy Joes and Mac and Cheese
Mon- Pork Chops and couscous and veggie

Hey guys! So happy spring is here! Out with the cold and in with the warm! Looking forward to seeing the changes more in the kitchen, too! Lots of yummy veggies coming in to season, and the farmers’ markets are just around the corner! Squeee!

I have been thinking of a way to try to expand my blog just a bit. I am thinking of adding more posts for breakfasts, snacks, and lunches (weekdays, not just weekends). I mostly try to eat at home and bring my lunch to school. For now, I will continue to post dinner meal plans, but I will add in breakfasts and lunches on the blog when I discover something I think you guys may like.

This weekend was wild here at our house! Becca had her birthday slumber party here and it was fun and filled with giggly adorable girls who know how to party like 7 year olds! We made mini-pizzas, had cake, and ate lots of snacks throughout the night. This morning I made them eggs and sausage and filled the oven and toaster with Eggo frozen blueberry waffles and french toast sticks. My kitchen smelled like syrup for a few hours after that =)
