DD16 lately makes requests, which I love:
—she wants me to try to make chicken lo mein. So that is planned for the snow day. —she also asked for a red curry with salmon and shrimp, which I have in my freezer, so just need some coconut milk. —also she likes flatbreads with leftover meatballs and mozzarella, so I have some yeast and will make that tomorrow since it’s a day off school. |
It is helpful to not always have to think about what to make! Does she help? I’ve been getting my kids (15 and 17) to help More in the kitchen and it’s been great! Benefits all of us ![]() |

I made some enchiladas with homemade sauce last week so I'm using the leftover sauce to make chicken tortilla soup. That will last one dinner and a couple of lunches. Tonight I'm making Mississippi pot roast with potatos which will be 2 dinners. Will make mushroom risotta in the instant pot later in the week. That will carry us for the week. |
