Looks healthy! I sometimes do menus for a week at a time but I’ve been so busy recently that has gone by the way side. A good thing to get back into, though
They’re certainly a help for me, but some days I just want to call it breakfast for dinner night …2 nights in a row
.
Yes, it can be tough meal-making on a continuous basis!
What are chicken puffs!? Im intrigued!
Oh they’re easy dj! I’ll get ya the recipe.:)
All looks yummy – as usual!
Thank you! Have a great week!
What’s your recipe for blueberry coffee cake?
I emailed ya!
The Crispy Baked Pork Chops recipe look really good. I will have to put this into my meal plan for this month. I am also looking forward to the chicken puffs recipe.
I’ll let you know how the pork chops taste. I’ve made something similar for a long time, but thought I’d try this one out. I’ll also share the puffs this week
Everything on your menu sounds so tasty!
I MUST pick your brain – how do you soft boil your eggs? I try constantly with zero success and have concluded that I’m the queen of hard boiling that which is not meant to be hard boiled. The soft boiled stage forever eludes me!
Hi Corrie, thanks so much for stopping by! The pressure!
I put the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. I bring them to a boil and then take them off the heat, cover, and let sit for about 2 minutes. Then stick in the egg cup and eat up (with a little s&p for me)! There might be a better way (I’m guessing there IS a better way), but this is the only way I do it. Hope that helps! I love hardboiled eggs, too. Sometimes I forget them on the stove and end up with hardboiled. Ah well…chomp chomp chomp anyhow:)
Everything sounds yummy, as usual! I still have not tried that English muffin bread…must get on that this week!
Summertime is so much fun…Have a good time with your little one
Thank you, Erin and you, too! I think you’ll love the bread and you’ll have tons for the freezer, too. Win all around!
