Meal Planning Kit, Week 4, Day 3

The last three meals, in the week 4 meal planning kit, where moved to the end; because I didn't realized there was some prep needed ahead of time.  It is important to read all the recipes and plan your week accordingly!

So, now we start with one that needed one of my favorite breads baked ahead of time, the Savory Tuscan Bread Quick Mix

Focaccia Sandwich & Roasted Garlic Basil Salad



It's that easy, just Savory Tuscan Bread Quick Mix & beer


Drizzle with EVOO


Smells & looks so yummy, can't we just eat it now!


Slice into a giant sandwich



Hot Raspberry Chipotle Mayo

Both sides get our special sauce


Lettuce

Roast beef



Cheddar cheese


Isn't it beautiful

Sour cream


Oil

White wine vinegar


Roasted Garlic Basil Seasoning


All ready to mix up


Creamy goodness

On the salad


Perfect summer meal

Hubby's quote: "You can't go wrong with lots of the Hot Raspberry Chipotle Mayo"

More about Little Man - He is our fruits & veggies guy.  The exception to this rule is salad, he doesn't like salad!  So, much to our surprise, he is sneaking this salad out of the serving dish.  Like everything else, he just had to try a bite or tow and he did . . . then we caught him sticking his fork into the serving bowl to grab more.   I think I will be making this salad dressing a lot!

Meal Planning Kit, Week 4, Day 2

After a weekend of three events, with lots of fun & friends; we needed a quick & simple Sunday night dinner.   We certainly accomplished that tonight with:

Meatloaf with Hot Raspberry Chipotle Sauce



Beat up that egg!


Add garlic, onion & red pepper to egg


Time to add the good stuff
Hot Raspberry Chipotle Sauce



Bread crumbs


Mix it all together


The gooey luscious mess


Hubby agreed to help with the dirty work today

Side track:  Yep, I do have one of those extra special hubbies, that is always helpful in the kitchen - he takes on the dirty work, preps food, cleans up as we go and is the best dishwasher ever!


"Oh, is it cold!"


The loaf


All ready for 30 minutes in the oven


After 30 minutes, top with more Hot Raspberry Chipotle Sauce
and back in the oven for 20+ minutes more


Cook to at least 155 degrees


Hubby's quote:  "A nice mixes of flavors, especially a little sweetness"

Bonus:

The side suggestion was baked sweet potatoes, so we had purchased sweet potatoes on our weekly shopping trip.   We all decided on something different and wanted baked sweet potato chips.  


Hubby sliced them up in the food processor
that guy again :D


We drizzled with EVOO and
Garden Seasoned Salt


and Blazin' Hot Southern Salt


The boys decided they wanted to add Parmesan cheese, too


baked them for a while, flipped them over and did the same on the other side

These are an all time favorite of mine and extra special, made with our Biltmore seasoning salts. Though the Blazin' Hot Seasoning Salt is too spicy for me, Hubby ate that entire pan by himself!
