Check me out over at At Work, At Play or At Home All Day talking about girlie stuff:-)
Here, I am doing more menu planning with I'm an Organizing Junkie and finding more deals at Pick N Save for $5 Dinners .
Chicken was on sale at Pick N Save for $1.99/lb. (normally $4.29/lb.) So, picked a bunch up and making some Bourbon Chicken this week. It's like that stuff you get at the mall without the liquor. And, this recipe is actually fairly healthy. Check it out below:-)
Here is what I am serving this week:
Sunday: Jeff's "Plain Old Steaks" Steak for Mother's Day
Monday: Semi-Homemade Spaghetti Dinner
Tuesday: Bourbon Chicken (see recipe below)
Wednesday: Fried Fish and French Fries
Thursday: Eat Out (Soccer tonight:-)
Friday: Left Over Buffet
