Menu Plan Week of July 21

July 20, 2008 > 10 Comments

Our first week of the kids making breakfast went very well. We still need to improve in the clean up department, but I am happy that they are all trying their best, and the breakfasts taste pretty good too.

My pizza on the grill from last week did not turn out as I expected. I burned one pizza and had to throw it away. They other two pizzas were edible, but I think it is easier to make them in the oven! My Mexican chicken skillet turned out awesome! You can find the recipe here.

My husband installed shelves in a closet next to the kitchen so now I have a pantry! I have moved all the food into the closet, but I need to organize it this week.

    Nice! I can’t wait until my children are old enough to help out with the cooking and such. It’s such a blessing for mom!
