Big Cooking Day Again





So, as I continue to do this once a month cooking thing I promise not to write a blog every single time, but I was so excited to complete another big cooking day today! I really can't wait to try out all the yummy recipes I made today. What's on the menu this month? Lots of good stuff. Gingerbread Waffles, Lemon Poppyseed Pancakes and Pumpkin Cinnamon rolls for breakfast; sweet potato chili, french dips, and turkey burgers for lunch; And stuffed pork roast, apple-cranberry pork chops, mandarin chicken, turkey stroganoff, spicy honey chicken, turkey shephards pie, chicken broccoli casserole and chicken with cumin and lime for dinners. I think I spent more time on this cooking day with the more detailed recipes, but I also think I spent LESS money, which definitely makes me happy. So, in the pictures you will see that I set out everything I needed out of my pantry the night before. It was definitely a huge help! You will also see the sweet potato chili cooking, the lemon poppyseed pancakes and the full freezer:-)

It was so nice to go throughout the month not having to wonder and worry about what to cook. We didn't love every recipe, but it was all good stuff and definitely worth the long day of work. Check out www.onceamonthmom.com. I am so glad I found it!
