| Crispy Fish Tacos w/ mango-avocado salsa |
My holiday hiatus turned into a very long break from the
blog thing, but I’m back now and I have a lot of great recipes to share! I also have a few revisions or just some
slight adaptations to some old recipes that I can’t wait to share also; one
being the fish tacos pictured above. I’ve
posted about fish tacos before, but I usually use a cornmeal-flour breading for
the fish. This time I was out of
cornmeal, so I used the FEB method (flour, egg, breading) using panko crumbs with
the same seasonings as the original tacos.
I really can’t tell you which BDL and I prefer; they’re both great!
I’ll share as much as
I can this week but my time will be monopolized by “100th day of
school” week in X’s class…tons of fun crafts and activities to celebrate the
100th day of school! One of
the activities is an at-home project for Friday’s Superhero Day. X-man has to pick out 100 items he wants to adorn
a cape made from a t-shirt. Guess what
he picked…thunderbolts! 100
thunderbolts!!! These thunderbolts are
to represent his dedication to the San Diego Chargers but at the same time “to
look cool like Flash!” I have no idea what we are going to make these
thunderbolts from, but I do know I’m taking a shopping trip to Hobby Lobby
tomorrow in hopes for some inspiration. Wish
me luck!
I’m keeping this week’s menu easy and fast since I’m working
at the school 4 days this week and getting things ready for our annual Super
Bowl party. . .Go Broncos!!!
Monday: Chicken & Veg
Stir-Fry/steamed brown jasmine rice/edamame
Tuesday: Loaded Baked Potato
Soup w/ bacon, green onions, & cheese/spinach salad/garlic-parmesan toast
I have potato soup stashed away in the freezer and this is a
great week to take advantage of freezer meals!

Wednesday: Rachael
sandwiches/baked fries/fruit salad & pickles
A Rachael is like the sister to a Reuben sandwich but
instead of corned beef it’s turkey with coleslaw, 1000 Island dressing, and
Swiss cheese. . .yum!
Thursday: Tuna Noodle Casserole/salad/garlic-parmesan
toast
I’ve had a craving for this recently. I’m going to use my mom’s recipe, which is a
huge favorite from my childhood. I’ll
post it later.
Friday: leftovers or
make-your-own grilled pizzas
Saturday: Party food tastings!
I’ll be prepping for the big Super Bowl party, so there will
be plenty of food to taste and snack on throughout the day.
Sunday: Super Bowl Party! Homemade onion dip w/ potato chips/nacho bar
w/ queso dip & all the fixings/chorizo-stuffed jalapeno poppers/fruit
bouquet/chili bar w/ veg chili, beef chili, and all the fixings
Laddie’s team, Denver Broncos, are in the Super Bowl this
year! A veg platter, extra chips, desserts,
and drinks are arriving with the guests and it’s going to be a big party! Go Broncos!
