I have a huge head of cauli I want to try it scalloped. Cabbage is going to be coleslaw. Slicing up some jicama for dipping in artichoke/spinach dip. Chicken salad with leftover garlic roasted chicken. Broiling chicken breasts with gouda, bacon and red peppers. Something with hamburger I'm thinking sloppy joes. I'm going to make some oppsies/floopsies. My Daughter birthday today I'm making a almond flour carrot cake.

I'll be hardboiling up a bunch of eggs tomorrow, and making something with the manchamantel sauce I made last week - probably go to the Mexican market and grab a pound or two of carnitas to chop up and mix with that sauce.

Otherwise, the usual, cook up bacon, get salad stuff ready, etc.

I'll be hard boiling a bunch of eggs today. Possibly wrapping some in sausage for "Scottish Eggs" as I want DH to have something filling to eat on his way to work in the mornings. I'm also making my Chicken and sausage bake soon and there should be leftovers from that. Other than that, we've got some stuff in the freezer to clear out like two large salmon filets, and some vacuum sealed, marinated venison roasts. We'll also be doing a roast chicken one of these nights. Sides usually are just fried/browned green beans or loaded broccoli.

I was just wondering if you have the recipe handy for the artichoke/spinach dip. I was just searching for a recipe for that. Thanks in advance.

I made some hard boiled eggs and boiled a rotisserie chicken carcass and made a ton of soup. Will make b-b-q beef in crockpot tomorrow and pork chops this week. I have 2 artichokes, cabbage for cole slaw and fixins for salad.

I have a small cabbage, half of it I'm going to try fried bacon & cabbage. If I like it I will make up the rest. If I don't, the other half will be coleslaw.

I'm turning a really dry crockpotted chicken into chicken salad. It was a 5 pound bird cooked for 8 hrs on low, up on tin foil balls. Any tips on having it come out juicier? I'm about to give up on crockpot chicken; it always comes out dry.

Making taco meat in bulk. I love having little tupperwares of that in the freezer.

Cooking a big pork shoulder in crockpot for shredded bbq pork. I'm going to try a carolina bbq sauce recipe from here.

Frying some zucchini and yellow squash (is it called yellow zucchini?) into chips. Another new thing I read about online somewhere.

Roasting up the rest of my frozen green beans. Best when fresh out of the oven but reheated is pretty good too!

I'll also make some side dishes for my carb-eating husband.

Going to the store for Le Big Shopping Trip Of The Week.

I'll be making a white castle pie, a big pot of meatball soup, and maybe some salmon cakes. The salmon cakes are a work in progress -- without the bread crumbs they tend to fall apart in the pan. (I don't use pork rinds because I don't like 'em.) So today I'll try the tips of adding a little parmesan and then chilling the batter before frying them up. Hope they turn out prettier than last time!

Not quite organized this week...

This is a great thread - I love seeing what everyone else is prepping. It gives me ideas, plus...well, I'm nosy!:blush:

I have a big roast, since Homeland had a sale for $1.99/lb. I'll probably eat off of that for at least a few days, and then I have some leftovers in the fridge. Tonight I'm going to make some grilled chicken for the end of the week and probably on Wednesday I'll make Beeb's Tuscan Soup in the crockpot. I love that stuff.

I'm also going to make my first attempt at ricing cauliflower. Wish me luck!

Yesterday I made for the week:
French toast scrambled eggs, cabbage chicken soup, and hamburger patties in a sourcream/mushroom sauce.

They are all individualized and put in containers to grab and go for the week.
