Menu Planning Monday (On a Tuesday!)

Here is my menu for the week with Links to the recipes I'll be using!


Tuesday- Roasted Sausage, Potatoes and Veggies from SkinnyTaste
  This is one of our favorite weeknight meals!  Super yummy and easy to make!  Just some chop chopping and then toss it in the oven!  I use small red potatoes and I use different flavored sausages depending on our mood!


Wednesday- White Chicken Enchiladas with Refried Jalapeño Black Beans from Joyful Momm's Kitchen
  This is super yummo!  We don't make it often because it's not super healthy and you end up eating the whole pan because it's so good!  I'll probably add a big of spice to the chicken mixture just to make it a bit more flavorful!


Thursday- Grilled Cheese and Soup from Me!
   Just a basic grilled cheese, bread and american cheese toasted!  And Trader Joes roasted red pepper soup, Yum!


Friday- Pan Seared Pork Chop with Pomegranate Red Wine Sauce from Bree at SkinnyMommy!
  This is a new one, so I'm excited to try it out!  I'll be making it with Sweet Potatoes!  

Tater Tot Casserole

Holy yummo right?!

I decided to give it a try tonight for dinner, and M and I were HIGHLY disappointed!  It did however have a lot of potential.  I think next time instead of using plain ground turkey we will use ground turkey seasoned with Alton's Taco Potion #9 (our favorite taco seasoning!).  I think that would make a HUGE difference.  I'm sure this dish is probably great for little ones who can't handle a ton of complex flavors.

Mine was also not nearly as pretty as Susan's, I didn't have cute little individual serving bowls, so I made mine in a 9x13 baking dish.

Overall- Not a super success.  I'd say 5/10 yummy points.   I'm excited to try it again next month and make some changes to make it more flavorful!
