This week's menu

Monday: Honey Mustard Chicken: Place 4 chicken breasts in a baking dish.  Cover with mixture of 1/2 cup mustard and 3/4 cup honey.  Sprinkle with lemon pepper to taste.  Bake 25 minutes in preheated 375F oven.  Place uncooked bacon (2 half strips per breast) and sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on the top and bake another 10 minutes until cheese bubbles, bacon is crispy and chicken is cooked.***After 35 minutes of cooking, I cranked the oven to 400 and cooked another 15 minutes.  It was close to done.  The kids couldn't wait, so they had hot dogs.  I think they would have liked it.  Oh well, I tried.

Tuesday: Tastefully Simple Pesto Pasta: (Sun-dried tomoto pesto meat sauce over noodles)

Wednesday: Dinner at Grandma Patti's and Grandpa Timmy's

Thursday: Crockpot Sesame Chicken:
2 1bs. skinless, boneless chicken thighs (I will probably use breasts ***I actually used skinless, boneless thighs -- cheaper than breasts :)  They worked great!).
1/2 c. low sodium soy sauce (Low sodium soy sauce?  Why bother?)
1/3 c. packed brown sugar
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. ground ginger
1 Tbsp. ketchup
1 Tbsp. toasted sesame seeds
Place chicken thighs in the slow cooker. Whisk together remaining ingredients in a bowl and pour over chicken.Cover and cook on low 6 to 8 hours or on high 3 or 4. Serves 4 - 6.

***YUMMY!  Jaeden didn't eat the chicken, but she rarely does.  I would add more sesame seeds.  This is a DEFINITE keeper :)

Friday: Date night???

Saturday: Pizza (or Dinner at the Millers?)

Have a great week!
