Happy Monday!
Since Keith is out of school, and my week at work is looking to be pretty crazy, I've asked him to take the lead on dinner this week. He was excited to be in charge of picking out the menu! Here's what he selected:
Chicken Lasagna with Roasted Red Pepper Sauce - YUM! We made this Southern Living recipe for dinner tonight and had his younger brother and sister over. It was wonderful! I'll be doing a post with the recipe this week.
Cider-Glazed Chicken with Browned Butter-Pecan Rice - I tore this out of the October issue of Cooking Light and it just sounds so good. We'll see!
Result: Good. The rice was the best part, but the chicken wasn't memorable. It was easy and tasted good, but not sure we'd make it again without making changes to the way the chicken is done.
Pork Chops with Pepper Jelly Sauce - Keith was excited about this Southern Living recipe. I think he'll be making it by himself. We love pork chops, and really love red pepper jelly. The combo of the two should be great!
Verdict: YUM! This was a hit. It was really easy and tasted great! I love the simple ingredient list, too.

Sweet Potato Casserole - As a side for the pork chops, Keith has decided he really wants a sweet potato casserole. We'll be using a basic Southern Living recipe, but I can't find it anywhere online. We may also have a side of green beans or a salad.

That chicken lasagna looks SO good! I love sweet potato casserole too :)
Hey Kendo! I have a jar of red pepper jelly in the fridge that needed using- That pork chop recipe looks great!
Have a great week!
Sounds great! I just bought some red pepper jelly. I love it on cream cheese, but I bet it is SO good on pork chops.
I have such a hard time letting the hub's do the cooking, but it is always nice to have the extra help!
