Okay, my overachieving self realized today that I want an easy week of cooking. We have tennis matches that aren't at home for two days and I'm sure my boys {well, young men} are working and busy with activities away from the house.
What this means is that I'm going to have to prep well over the weekend or I'm gonna have to listen to "There's nothing to eat Mom....." {darn whiny hinys}. Since I want to eat too, I'll cook. Yep, right after I complete the shelving/clean out project for my pots and pans. This week at Aldi I found expandable shelving that will make organization much simpler for my pots and pans in the large cupboards where I store them. I'll take some pictures :) That garage sale to get rid of all this extra stuff is getting closer and closer.
WEEKEND COOKING
1. Banana Bread Brownies (Bringing to work)
2. Chop peppers and onions and make Carne Asada marinade.(If I'm not making today will mix and leave separately and marinate the steak the night before)
3. Thaw chicken and make Crispy Coconut and Scallion Breaded Chicken Cutlets (maybe for freezer)

Now that I've made this plan, I realize that all of my recipes are new and I might have lost my mind since I didn't want to cook too much this week. Maybe it will get done, maybe not. Either way I'm posting reviews since I've never made these before and I don't want to lose the recipes if we like them. Have a great week and hop over to orgjunkie.com for lots of other menus and the source of my "I have to make this as soon as I get home" recipes.
