It’s been a while since I posted our week’s menu, and for good reason. We’ve been flying by the seat of our pants. Not a good thing I know, but it’s been pretty hectic around here! But I have seen a few recipes I really want to try and my carpool buddy is driving to soccer practice tomorrow night, so I have a little time to get prepared for the rest of the week. Tonight I’m using some premade vodka sauce and stuffed shells I picked up at Villarina’s Pasta Shop…one of my favorite places around town!
Tomorrow I’m making this Creamy Barbeque Shrimp from Call Me PMC. Check out the recipe…doesn’t it look delicious?!
Another recipe I want to try out this week is the Sesame Chicken from the Silver Palate cookbook. I cannot find the recipe anywhere online to link up, but I did find this Buttermilk Chicken recipe that is similar.
The other thing I am going to try to make this week is Pork Chile Verde, by Heather Christo. For some reason, I’ve been craving pork chile lately, and this recipe looks really good!
We’re a panini family, so lastly I want to try out this Chorizo and Peppadew Pepper Grilled Cheese from Foodie Crush! The boys don’t like peppadews so I’ll just make theirs without. The rest of us love them – I am really looking forward to this one!

Hectic schedules are all over the place! Glad you have some down time to get a plan together. Love Paula, that shrimp looks divine! Foodie Crush's finished product looks totally amazing as well. Have fun with all the experimenting this week! Is there room for a guest???LOL

I am looking forward to meeting you one of these days! I ended up having to drive to soccer practice after all, so shrimp will have to wait till tomorrow! :( And I've already got my pork in the crock pot for later this week!

The buttermilk chicken sounds awesome! I try to plan our meals for two weeks out (we only go grocery shopping every other Saturday). It can be challenging!

Oh I'd like to only go grocery shopping every other week! How do you manage that? If I could pull that off, I'd be so happy! Or get organized enough to do grocery delivery!

Your menu sounds super good! I would love to try the barbeque shrimp! I am definitely going to pin that for future reference! I keep saying that I want to begin menu planning. I will start one day! :-)

I was going to make it tonight, but my car pool buddy now can't drive so my hubby's in charge. He's making tacos. I can't wait to make it though!

Everything sounds so amazing! We are a panini household as well, I haven't done them in so long though. It's so easy and stress free :)

We used to do them once a week and we've gotten away from them. I'm ready to start up again!
