Now We're Cooking

This week's menu come's courtesy of the Hint of Honey blog. I don't personally know Jessie (I do know her parents -- they rock!) -- her blog is FABULOUS.

This week:

Coconut Curry Chicken Soup

Pulled Pork Rub Sandwiches

Chili con Carne with Cheddar Jalapeno Biscuits

Ribollita (Tuscan Bread Soup)

Chicken Enchiladas with Roasted Tomatillo Salsa

Grilled Chipotlet Shirmp Tacos with Mango Avocado Salsa

Herb Marinated Pork Tenderloin, Revisited with Herb Roasted Veggies

Here is the curry soup:

My gosh. It was beyond amazing. A personal favorite.

This recipe called for chicken...so I cooked up a big batch, cut it up and put it in freezer bags for four more meals.

Normally, I just boil the chicken for this kind of meal, but that can lead to tough or dry chicken. So this time, I used this method for oven roasting chicken. It worked so great. The chicken was moist and delicious. I am excited to do this again.

Lisa asked how my family was taking all these new meals. And I would say mostly good.

Josh doesn't like anything. And out of the six new recipes I tried last week, he only really loved the pumpkin pancakes. Which, by the way were a universal favorite.

The rest of the kids pretty much liked everything else.

I will be adding the Apricot Chicken, Garlic Chicken Penne with Spinach, and Pumpkin Pancakes to our family's regular dinners.

I will also be adding the Tortilla Soup to our family food storage recipes.
