What’s for Dinner: 10/31 – 11/6

Another week, another recipe list. I’m always on the hunt for new recipes to try so leave me your favorite in the comments! See what I’m making with recipes below.

SUNDAY – Baked Potato Soup

Halloween just seemed like the perfect day for some soup. I will be sharing the recipe later this week, so keep an eye out for it (sign up for the email list to get a notification).

MONDAY – Meatloaf

I didn’t end up making meatloaf last week, so I’m going to make it this week! I’m using the Pioneer Woman version .

TUESDAY – Tacos

I’m all about easy this week. So tacos it is!

WEDNESDAY – Sheetpan Sausage

Again another super easy meal! I throw whatever veggies I want, cubed potatoes, and Italian sausage links on a baking sheet with seasoning and olive oil and bake until everything is cooked.

THURSDAY – Pork Chops and Rice

Pork chops is one of our favorites to cook on the grill. Brody is obsessed with cheesy rice-a-roni so I will make that and salad as sides.

FRIDAY – Cream Chicken and Rice Soup

This soup is perfect for a chilly fall day (and is pretty easy to make).

Saute 2 chopped carrots, 2 celery stalks, and diced onion in 3 tablespoons of butter. Add in 1 tsp of rosemary, thyme, sage, and pepper, 2 tsp of salt and 4 cups of chicken stock. Simmer for 8-10 minutes. In a separate pan add 5 tablespoons of butter and 1/2 cup flour. Once combined add 1/2 cup heavy cream and 1 1/2 cup milk. Cook on low until thickened. Add milk mixture, a shredded rotisserie chicken, and 3 cups of cooked rice to the broth and enjoy.

SATURDAY – This is leftover day. We clean up what is left or I leave this day flexible if something didn’t go a planned during the week.
