C's picks - week of August 9th. - A Life From Scratch.

Alright, it’s Sunday morning and that means it’s time to plan! Who is with me? I hope you can steal away for 20 minutes just to yourself to help sort through your week and get your menu plan together. Trust me, I know, it’s hard! Yet it makes all the difference come Monday. Here is what’s going down in our kitchen this week.

I’m writing more about this in a brand new motherhood post tomorrow, but dinner has been challenging lately. For a while you are going to see some very quick cooking meals around here, which I hope you find helpful!

Sunday night we will be partying it up at Lindy’s! Let B’s third birthday celebration continue – yippee! Plenty of friends, family, coconut shrimp, and margaritas. All good things.

On Monday we’re going old school with some good old fashioned sloppy joes. Perfect for M and for the football crazed boys. And I love that I can sneak in a bunch of chopped vegetables fresh from the market.

This chicken quesadilla pie comes together in 15 minutes and uses my favorite short cut, the rotisserie chicken. Perfect for Tuesday night!

Love, love, love the idea of these sausage heroes. They’ll keep everyone in the family happy on Wednesday night.

On Thursday we will be dining on these heirloom tomato sandwiches, i.e. what I want to eat every night of the summer.

And that brings us to Friday and to a fun girls night in! Plenty of platters that look like this Prosciutto Burrata Asparagus Salad will be set out for everyone to enjoy. I can’t wait. I’m also thinking a massive pitcher of this Mixed Berry Limoncello Sangria. Oh la la!

So what do you think? Do you like these quicker meal options? I hope so! Share a comment and let me know what’ll be cooking in your kitchen this week!
