As for reviews, I only have 2. The spinach and brie chicken was just ok. It just lacked a little something. The orzo salad that went with it, however, was quite tasty and the kids loved it. The veggie enchiladas were also just ok. I'm pretty sure it was the sauce that I was underwhelmed by so I'm considering making them again with Rachael Ray's Firecracker Enchilada sauce.

Keenan helped out some friends and neighbors this past week with various projects and his (our) payment was in dinner! So, I have a couple of roll-overs this week. I also remembered some shepherd's pie in the freezer that we should eat making for an easy menu this week. Next week will be more of a challenge trying to get us to Christmas with only one major grocery trip! We'll see how that goes!

Nov 28 - Dec 6

Ok...time to get back at it. Since we just got back in town and needed food in the house, I've made this menu to get me through the next week and a half instead of shopping twice (shiver). We swapped Hannukah gifts with my family while we were in town and I now have a bread maker! I'm hoping to make a loaf or two this week to accompany our meals :)
