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!

Meal Planning Kit, Week 3, Day 2

As promised, Little Man made the choice tonight.  And, he went for Wednesday's meal and side dish.

Chicken Quesadillas and Summer Salsa Rice

Rotisserie chicken, tortillas, sour cream, monterey jack cheese, mozzarella cheese and Biltmore Inspirations Smoky Mountain Mustard Spread for the chicken quesadillas.   Rice, diced tomatoes, salt and Biltmore Inspirations Summer Salsa Seasoning Mix for the summer salsa rice. 

Here we go:

The rice was so easy, I forgot to take a picture!  I should get the hang of this blog routine down soon . . .

The finished product:

Hubby's quote:  "I am so full . . . it was great, like yesterday!"   He did eat a little too much!

BONUS:

Little Man saw the drink recipes and decided he wanted to make the Raspberry Ginger Temple for us all. 



He loved making it and drinking it!

What will tomorrow bring . . .
