Friday -- leftovers.
Sorry, but it's the truth. I'll have enough left over from stroganoff and beef stew for another meal. And so we eat it again.
Thursday -- Beef Stew
Pull out the crock pot again, friends.
You'll need:
About a pound of stew beef
Box of beef broth
red wine
celery
carrots
3-4 potatoes
onion
can of petite diced tomatoes (not drained)
can of corn, drained.
garlic
salt and pepper
Cut up carrots, celery, onion, potatoes and chunk in slow cooker. Put in beef (Mine goes in frozen). Add can of tomatoes and can of corn. add garlic.
put a splash of red wine in, then add beef broth until the top of the stuff is barely covered.
Covered, and cook for about 6 hours on low. If your beef is frozen, occasionally break it up.
I serve this with Rhodes rolls as well.

Wednesday -- Chicken fingers
This is probably my favorite recipe ever. I follow it exactly. Have for years. Which is really saying something since I cannot leave well enough alone. Ever.
Rachel Ray's Crunchy Oven-Baked Chicken Toes
Make the sauce. It's good. Make extra, they heat up well for lunch the next day.
Put it with some broccoli or whatever your family will eat.

Tuesday -- Rice, Chicken and Broccoli
This is my desperate attempt to combine things my kids will eat into one meal.
Rice, chicken and broccoli
you'll need:
diced chicken (use leftovers from your baked chicken)
package of uncle ben's long grain and wild rice (I like the 90 second envelope)
frozen broccoli (or peas. or both)
sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
can of mushrooms
half a can of cream of chicken soup or cream of mushroom soup
Cook rice in microwave.
Cook broccoli in microwave.
Cut chicken into bitesized pieces.
Mix all items and place in a 9x9 baking pan. Bake at 350 until bubbly. Enjoy!

Monday -- Stroganoff
I love me some beef stroganoff. seriously.
So this is the recipe I use, but I make a couple of changes.
I use beef broth in place of the bouillion and water. I put my beef in frozen. I add most of a package of frozen green beans.
I like to make hot rolls (Rhodes frozen dough) to go with these.

Sunday -- homemade pizza
This is one of my favorite have-all-the-stuff-in-the-kitchen meals.
You will need:
a pizza stone. Seriously, you have to have one of these.
a package of pizza crust mix. I prefer Martha White thin crust.
A jar of pizza sauce. I buy the walmart brand.
tons o' mozzarella cheese. The shredded, but not the fancy shredded type.
vegetables and/or meat
On the vegetables: You can purchase frozen green bell peppers, onions, and sliced mushrooms. I always have these. I use them for spaghetti and pizza and breakfast casserole and they are fine.
On meat: I purchase 5 lbs of hamburger meat at a time and cook it all at once. Then I freeze it in plastic bags to use quickly. It's cheaper, saves me dishes, and it's fast.
So follow the directions on the pizza crust package. Seriously, this is so good. If you're feeling healthy and ambitious, fix a salad to go with. If you are lazy like me and your children fear lettuce, then open a can of pineapple or something.
