Dinners my first week back to work went pretty well. I used the slow cooker a lot. We did get pizza one night over the weekend, though.
Working 12:30 to 9 pm makes getting dinner for the family challenging. I do as much as I can ahead of time. Like today, I made the rice this morning when I put the rest of the meal in the slow cooker. The slow cooker has always been my friend, but now we are tight. BFF’s. lol
I was off Saturday night, so I made a Bacon Wrapped Venison tenderloin, alfredo noodles, and broccoli. Yum! The family was happy.
While I was in the kitchen making that, I did a mini- freezer session. I made one meal of sweet & sour chicken (which I used tonight lol) one pack of Ranch chicken breasts, one pack of plain chicken breasts, and one pack of sliced onions & green peppers.
I need to plan & allot the time this weekend to get some more meals in the freezer.
I’m still open to easy dinner ideas that my family will love! Share with me, please!
