Hi Everyone! Here's my plan:
- Breakfast
- Pancakes and Waffles
- I will make enough batches to use 2 quarts of buttermilk and freeze most of them in gallon ziplocks. Then when we need more breakfast food, I just take out and put in the fridge. I use the microwave for the pancakes and toaster oven for the waffles. Makes for easy breakfasts! We usually also have fruit with breakfast.
- Dinners
- Jambalaya
- My husband really enjoys this one. It's on the weekly list.
- Cilantro Lime Chicken (Slow cooker recipe)
- Will make 2 lbs worth. I made this a few weeks ago and it's tasty! I'm serving with warm tortillas (by placing tortillas in a wet paper towel or 2 and warming for 30 seconds).
- Cilantro: I froze some cilantro the last time I made this by adding a little oil, blending it, and freezing in an ice cube tray. I'm going to try using the cilantro ice cubes and see how that goes.
- Update 2/4/16: The frozen cilantro cubes worked out great! And it kept me from having to buy cilantro twice and do all the work of removing the stems, etc.
- Lime Cilantro Rice
- To go with the Cilantro Lime Chicken. I use bottled lime juice.
- BBQ Glazed Meatballs
- This is a new one for me. I'm excited to try it.
- I will cut the recipe down to 8 servings to use only 1 lb meat. I will also cut the brown sugar down by half per the first review. Finally, I will use regular milk instead of evaporated milk.
- Update 2/4/16: The Husband really enjoyed these. I thought they were pretty good. I will probably double the sauce next time and also serve with rolls, per my husband's request =).
- Will serve with Ranch Roasted Potatoes (I use russets).
- Roasted Carrots - side one night.
- Superbowl food:
- Probably courtesy of Dominos! =)
- I will also need to make more yogurt at some point soon. I make it about every 10 days. I do sweeten it now, so I use my recipe above but then add 1/2 c. to 3/4 c. sugar and 2 vanilla (per 8 c milk). I add these after heating the milk while it's cooling down, but before adding the yogurt starter.
