The Big White Farmhouse

intentional living, little by little

February 5, 2019

No.218: New Habits, Little by Little: Cooking at Home (January 2019)

It took us until the end of the month to get our act together, but we’re bringing big Sunday dinners back!  Everyone pitches in – some cook, some set the table, some fill the drinks – and then we sit around our big dining room table, eating and chatting about the week ahead.  Such a nice way to celebrate the Sabbath and round out the weekend.

Tuesday, January 1: pesto parmesan chicken with jasmine rice and salad
Wednesday, January 2: Refrigerator Clean-Out Night
Thursday, January 3: brats and salad
Friday, January 4: cheese pizzas from the grocery store

Week 80:
Saturday, January 5: cheesy southwest chicken lasagna rolls
Sunday, January 6: Epiphany! perfect pot roast
Monday, January 7: breakfast for dinner – pancakes
Tuesday, January 8: tacos
Wednesday, January 9: oktoberfest sheet pan brats with roasted vegetables
Thursday, January 10: leftovers
Friday, January 11: out for burgers

Week 81:
Saturday, January 12: creamy chicken tortilla soup

Wednesday, January 16: Mark made homemade pepperoni and supreme pizzas
Thursday, January 17: creamy chicken tortilla soup (again!)
Friday, January 18: shrimp egg rolls

Week 82:

Sunday, January 20: we lost power in the wind storm so went out for burgers
Monday, January 21: chicken cordon bleu casserole
Tuesday, January 22: breakfast for dinner – scrambled eggs, bacon and homemade cheddar, ham & chive biscuits
Wednesday, January 23: take-and-bake pizzas from the grocery store
Thursday, January 24: balsamic chicken veggie bake
Friday, January 25: Panera copycat french onion soup

Week 83:
Saturday, January 26: sheet pan mini meatloaves with potatoes and green beans
Sunday, January 27: ham, mashed potatoes, bacon brussels sprouts and rolls

    We love love love chicken cordon bleu pasta casserole! Mini Meatloaf's sound delightful. I love looking at your list because I can get in such a rut with cooking some weeks.
