Sunday's Menu Plan for the Week!

I'm trying to get organized around my house.  No better thing to focus on than the menu plan, which saves $$, saves time, and is better over all for my family!

I spent today (Sunday) making a few things to make our menu a little more lively.  I made homemade chocolate pudding for snacks or dessert, homemade bread for supper and sandwiches, homemade croutons for salads/soup, and some homemade ranch dressing for dipping and salads (new recipe I'm trying).  So far I have a great start to the week and that should make getting out of bed in the morning a whole lot easier!

Here's my Menu plan for the week starting Sunday, January 13 - AT HOME MY WAY:

Menu Plan (starting Sunday, January 13, 2013)
 
 
Breakfast items:
 
  • Homemade quick oats oatmeal with fruit/brown sugar
  • Zucchini bread (recipe coming this week)
  • Small batch raisin bran muffins (recipe coming)

Lunches:
 
  • Tomato soup with HM croutons (crouton recipe coming)
  • Tossed salad with HM ranch dressing and HM croutons (dressing/mix recipe coming - this dressing is delicious!)
  • Sandwiches with (gift) honey mustard, veges & HM ranch dip

Suppers:
 
  • Pot Roast with potatoes, carrots, and little dumplings (Sunday Dinner) (recipe coming soon)
  • Tacos with cheese beans (recipe coming)
  • HM baked chicken strips with salads/HM ranch
  • Hawaiian Chicken with rice, pineapple salad
  • HM Pizza
  • Free soup (leftover roast, veges, more veges from the freezer), crusty bread (same dough as HM Pizza) 

Snacks:
 
I have lots of cushion in this menu plan.  We have lots of leftovers from the Sunday Pot Roast.  We can have roast beef sandwiches on HM sandwich bread or just warmed up leftovers from this meal.  I may not need all of the suppers in this menu plan but they're here if I need some inspiration!

Best Dill Pickles EVER! (Just like Claussen) (Easy - no canning!)

Do you want to make the best, easiest homemade dill pickles in the world?   I found a recipe for dill pickles that tastes JUST LIKE Claussen refrigerator pickles.  Those are the best anyway, right?  That crunch, the dill and the garlic... and oh yea , the crunch!  This recipe is super easy because you  don't have to process these pickles which means there is no canning needed.   You just fill a gallon jar (we use an old pickle jar) with fresh cucumbers and dill heads, and then pour over the cooled liquids/seasonings.   Let it sit on the counter for three days, and then refrigerate.  After that, the pickle eating begins. They are supposed to keep for one year like that in the fridge, without canning.  (We let them sit for the 3 days, then refrigerated them overnight before opening the jar for the much anticipated first taste. Did they taste like Claussen?  YOU BET YOUR PRETTY PICKLE THEY DID!  We were all SO ex...

Buttermilk Biscuits - Just like Cracker Barrel!

RECIPES AT THE TOP - CHIT CHAT AT THE BOTTOM! Here's how we make Buttermilk Biscuits AT HOME MY WAY: Buttermilk Biscuits (just like Cracker Barrel) (Makes about 8 biscuits.) PRINTABLE RECIPE HERE Ingredients: 2 cups SELF RISING flour  (self rising flour gives the perfect taste to homemade biscuits) 1/3 cup shortening  (cold real butter also works here) 1 1/4 cup buttermilk*  *NOTE:  (If using regular milk combined with lemon juice vinegar referenced below, you only need 1 cup of milk because thinner regular milk uses less by volume than the thick real buttermilk.) Directions: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. (Make sure your flour is "fluffed" not straight from the bag;  Dump it in a larger container and stir using up and down motion to fluff it up a little bit-THEN measure out 2 cups).  Measure 2 cups SELF RISING flour into a mixing bowl.  Add shortening and cut it until small and crumbly. A fork works fine for this purpose ...
