I like to think I am a pretty decent cook and baker. I am not very creative in the kitchen, but can follow a recipe to a T, sometimes substituting healthier options, and things turn out pretty good - my co-workers love my cakes I must say!!!! Working and hanging out with the Babes does not leave much time to cook a gourmet meal. The kitchen in the townhouse is smaller than my closet at House#3, so makes cooking even harder even if I did have the time.
H is a meat and potatoes kind of guy. He loves sauces and flavors and for the most part would rather do the dinner cooking while I get the girls bathed and settled for bed - we divide and conquer over here. Recently, I felt like we were in a dinner rut and eating the same thing every week, so I made a goal to try at least one new Pinterest recipe each week and only repeat if something is a hit. Luckily we have had a few hits with both H and the Berger Babes - score for me - because this does not happen often.
Roasted Cauliflower as a side - it is like popcorn - YUM
I made this Mac and Cheese recipe for the girl this week. I threw in some pureed cauliflower - HIT!!! Score momma - sneaking in those veggies!
APRICOT CHICKEN.
This is something my mom used to make at when we were growing up - Mimi is not a cook and if she can do it, anyone can!!! It is EASY and delicious. Literally, you cover chicken breast with a jar of apricot jelly and cook till chicken is done!!!!! SO EASY and SO YUMMY!!!!
I promise, each of these recipes is easy (a few are in the Crockpot which is even better) and all are delicious and healthy for the most part!!!!
Here is a peak at the house - shingles are on - metal roof up next!!!
