Monday Meal Plan
The meal plan last week went great. We started the week off with this yummy Shepherd pie. It was the best one I think that I have ever made. I don't know if it was because I decorated the top with my frosting decorators or what.
The recipe was ad lib so here are the ingredients
Hamburger
Garlic
Onion
Worcestershire sauce
Cream corn
Potatoes
Cheese
Well potatoes are boiling, fry hamburger with garlic and onions. Add Worcestershire sauce. When no longer pick drain grease and add 1 can of cream corn.
When potatoes are soft drain and add milk and butter as though making your bestest mashed potatoes. I added some cheddar this time.
To assemble pour meat mixture into the bottom of the dish and top with potatoes. Then if you want to get really fancy put some of the potato mixture into a piping bag and decorate...hubby was very impressed with this. Coming through the door his mouth dropped opened and stated "I can't believe there's frosting on the shepherds pie"!
The crock pot chicken recipe was very delicious as well even though I was out longer then planned and cooked it a tad bit too long. We were going to enjoy this over rice but the rice didn't turn out either so we ended up enjoying this dish wrapped up in warm tortillas.
I won't be meal planning for the next two weeks as we are off on a missions trip. See you all again in August.
Monday: Chili and home fries and salad
Tuesday: Sausage Marinara over pasta
Wednesday: Pork sandwiches
Thursday: Spicy Chickpea and Vegetable Casserole
Friday: Picnic in the car
Saturday: Anniversary Party (25 years)

The shepherd's pie is BEAUTIFUL!
ReplyDeletePicnic in the car sounds very exciting. :) Hope this week goes as well as last week, and that the missions trip is as much a blessing to you as to the people you travel to see.
