The week felt split down the
middle between fresh meals and leftovers/eating out. Part of that stemmed from
not going to the store since before Holy Week. We ended up with new groceries
at the end of the week, so I’m excited to do some cooking this week! Here is a
peek at what we had…
Monday: Chicken Gyros
What We Did:
Ryan loves chicken thighs, so
that was the meat I used for this recipe. We air fried them, and they were so
juicy and flavorful! We paired the chicken with leftover foods from our Easter
Sunday grazing board: Challah bread, grapes, veggies with hummus, and cheese.
It was a yummy little dinner!
Tuesday: Pizza!
What We
Chose: It’s been
almost a month since we had pizza, and we didn’t get to go on ANY dates the
week before, because of all the Holy Week busyness. So sweet Ryan surprised me
by ordering Casey’s pizza. We love Casey’s. And pizza just tastes better when
you haven’t had it for a long time!
Wednesday: Leftover Chicken Gyros
What We
Loved: We had to eat
dinner about 9:00 p.m. this night, so it was beautiful to warm up the gyros and
throw in some veggies and hummus to make it a meal!
Thursday:
Breakfast for
Dinner
What We Did: This was the second week in a row
that we ran out of groceries before days of the week, so we used some of our
farm fresh eggs with spinach and cheese, leftover turkey smoky links, and the
last of the Easter grapes. It was yummy!
Friday: Subway
What I
Loved: Ryan and I
spent the evening cleaning at my parents’ apartment. (We have less than a week
to be out of it completely.) No time for cooking, so Subway to the rescue. Ryan
got the Philly cheesesteak sandwich and tried Garlic Aoli Sauce on it, and he
loved it! I did a classic ham with all the veggies, but my two favorite things
were: they actually put stuff on the sandwich (so skimpy lately!) and the FLATBREAD
IS BACK!!!!!
Saturday: Crustless Chicken Pot Pie and Fondue
Grazing Board (Strawberries, Pound Cake, Nutter Butters, Potato Chips + More)
What We
Loved: The pot pie recipe
is thicker than soup, but it did remind me of soup just a bit. I wondered if it
would remind me of my old tried and true Chicken in a Garden recipe (minus the
crust) and there were indeed some similarities. Ryan said it was good, so that’s
a win!
Stay tuned
later this week to hear more about the fondue. It was SO FUN!!
Sunday: Scrambled Eggs and Smoky Links
What I
Loved: I had a
different meal planned for Sunday evening, but switched plans to make it easier
for the Sabbath. Farm fresh eggs, leftover smoky links…the last of the Challah
bread from last Sunday. Perfect and filling.
