I like normal weeks.  I mean, don’t get me wrong, I love doing fun things and love out of the ordinary with people, and events, and cooking times – but I also like the ordinary weeks.  This week…we have no guests, I’m cooking one meal for a family in our church, I will probably do some baking with the boys – but other than that it is pretty normal and I’m trying to use ingredients I already have in my kitchen.

Pepperoni and Cheese Crescent Rolls for a quick dinner for my men on Tuesday night while I run to Target before the ever important NCIS comes on

Broccoli Rice Chicken Cheddar One-Dish Casserole (recipe coming soon on this blog)

Creamy Chicken and Wild Rice Slow Cooker Soup

Shaved Greens and Caesar Salad (making this without the mandolin and using bottled dressing – but you get the hint)

We are eating on this cake that I made this past weekend

My friends Red Beans and Rice (pinto beans here)
