YEA!! It's a four-day week for me this week, and only a 3-day school week for the Chickies. PLUS, a four-day weekend! YEA!
Monday - I have some cube steaks that need to be eaten and instead of just the same old chicken-fried steak, I thought something different for us like Cube Steak Parmigiana might be good. I'll use my homemade sauce instead of what is listed. I think the Chickies will like it!
Tuesday - KK requested the Hamburger Stroganoff. It is her favorite thing currently. I'm not sure how it replaced the shake n' bake pork chops, but she loves this stuff!
Wednesday - Piano lesson day! I have a few potatoes that are starting to go south, so I figured potato soup and grilled cheese. Simple and easy and well-loved by all!
Thursday - I found a bag of chicken hind quarters on sale for $4.99 (a ten-lb. bag).... I need an intervention for buying chicken on sale! I swear I have 6 or 7 whole chickens, these hindquarters, PLUS a huge bag of boneless, skinless breasts. At any rate, Simply Great Chicken will be a great use of those hindquarters. I'm also in lurrrrrrrvvvvvveeeeee with Dishy's Herbed Rice Pilaf. I've made it a few times, added different veggies on their last stand in the fridge and the Chickies love it too! A very nice side dish to any meal.
Friday - I thought we'd try something different for us..... PIZZA! I'm not a huge fan of pizza. GASP! SHOCK! HORROR! I will be home on Friday and might try my hand a making a pizza dough.... recommendations on a easy yeast dough would be appreciated. I will make Easy Pizza Sauce and have go for basic pepperoni.
Saturday - Shamefully hanging my head. I still haven't made tilapia with baked lemon pasta. I need to make it or the lemons I bought specifically for this will have had a wasted life. Poor lemons, we can't do that to them!
Sunday - Valentine's Day! I don't know what we are gonna do - I thought and thought and thought about what I wanted to make - nothing was jumping out of me. I might just take my Chickies out for dinner. :)

I've never made Cube Steak Parmigiana, I always use them for chicken fried steak (with extra gravy of course) but that recipe sounds good! Enjoy your short week, I only get a 3 day weekend -still no complants here :)
Susie,
Do you have a bread machine? If so, I have an extremely easy pizza dough recipe!
Peace,
Kelley
Kelley - Be sad for me, of all the kitchen appliances I own - I do not have a bread machine (or a kitchen aid!!!). Let's have a moment of silence for our sorrow! bwahahahahaah
You just reminded me that it's a three day weekend. YAY!!
Susie, how about the deep dish pizza dough recipe from Cooking Light? That is the dough that I now use all the time because it makes both Grumpy and me happy!
