I've made a new recipe every night this month. It's been hugely successful but I am ready to not have to find 7 new recipes for every week. Sunday- crockpot steak fajitas Monday- parmesan crusted chicken with a zucchini, black bean and rice dish Tuesday- Skinny cheeseburger pie (made with ground turkey) with Caesar green beans Wednesday- baked ziti with meatballs
Tonight is potato chicken. I don't have the exact recipe with me (it's at home) but basically you coat the boneless skinless chicken breast with seasonings and some potato flakes (like you would use to make instant potatoes on the stove) and bake it in the oven. With a side salad.
DH's favorite meal so far this month has been either the beef wellingtons or the stuffed baked potato. Baked potatoes and grilled up some sliced chicken sausage and a variety of fresh veggies (zucchini, squash, mushroom, bell peppers) and added a little bit of cream and diced tomatoes. Split the potato open and add the sausage and veggies. I don't know why- but he thought that was the best meal this month.

Anyone have a good marinade for pork chops? We love the balsamic herb one we get at the grocery store. I think it's Lowrys? It's by the ketchup, etc ...at least in my store.

Italian dressing! or Weber's black peppercorn marinade. it's a packet that you mix with water. I use it for pork, chicken, and it's really good for swordfish.

I like marinating in something like this & then brushing them with orange marmalade jsut before taking them off the grill to glaze them:
Ingredients
1/4 cup soy sauce 1/4 cup olive oil (I like sesame oil instead) 2 tablespoons grated orange rind 1/4 cup fresh orange juice 2 garlic cloves, chopped 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger (I also add some red pepper flake and sometimes brown sugar too)

Last night it was burgers and fries; I topped mine with some leftover stir-fried veggies from Tuesday night's Chinese pork loin dinner.
Tonight it's Spanish beef and rice, with peas on the side.
Not sure about tomorrow, but Friday is grocery shopping and laundry night, so whatever it is, it will be quick.
