My lasagna is so unique...so special....Just teasing!!! I use the recipe off the Meuller's box.
Real Original right?
The only change I make is using my own meat sauce. You can get that recipe here.
Enjoy!!

Meatballs in sauce and s'mores popcorn
I know I am behind on posting. Sorry about that. Life has been a little busy.
Here is a picture of Paula Deen's Cheese Stuffed Meatballs and my homemade sauce.
Thursday was National Popcorn Day! We made s'mores popcorn. It is YUMMY!
Basically I popped a bag of popcorn - I use light butter.
Put it in an 8 quart bowl.
I then broke up a Hershey bar into small pieces and spread it on top.
I added my homemade marhsmallows that I cut up into small pieces. You can use mini marshmallows, I just had the homemade ones so I decided to use those.
I also broke graham crackers into small pieces. You can use cinnamon teddy grahams, or cinnamon square cereal. My family likes the graham crackers.
Then I melted milk chocolate chips and drizzled a good quantity over the popcorn, marshmallow, graham cracker mixture. Toss to coat everything with the chocolate. It won't last so you don't have to worry about storing it!
Enjoy!

Weekly Menu Plan for 3rd week of January
I have done weekly/monthly menu plan for several years. It just makes life easy.
I try to plan according to our chaotic schedule - kid's activities and Hubby's work schedule. I also try to look at what is on sale or if I have any coupons. I try to make one or 2 things to put in the freezer. Here is my plan for the week. I will try to add pictures if I remember to take any!
I make rolls and a loaf of basic bread on Sundays. I try to make a second round on Wednesdays.
My husband takes his lunch to work too. I usually put leftovers or make a salad with some type of protein for him. I try to put together baggies of healthy - or atleast not to unhealthy snacks together for him and the kids for the week.
Monday 1/16 Chicken Parmesan, Emily's bread sticks, homemade pasta
Here is a link to a good Chicken Parmesan recipe. The only thing I do different is I double dip. I dip the chicken in a egg/milk mixture, dip in flour, then back in the egg/milk mixture, then in breadcrumb mixture. I also season my flour and breadcrumbs with my own "house" Italian seasoning mix. I will post that in a bit and link it back to here.
The Bread stick recipe - I will have Emily post that tomorrow after she makes them.
As for the homemade pasta - you can not go wrong with Mario Batali's pasta recipe. It is simple and very tasty.
Tuesday 1/17 Slow Cooker - Paula Deen's Cheese Stuffed Meatballs and sauce. *I make a big batch of homemade sauce in the slow cooker once a month. I happen to have 3 bags of sauce left in the freezer.
Salad, homemade bread, and steamed broccoli
Wednesday 1/18 Homemade Pizzas, stromboli
Thursday 1/19 Band Concert night - slow cooker Cheesy Potato Soup and English muffin pizzas
* I use homemade chicken broth and all cheddar cheese instead of a blend.
For English Muffin Pizzas - I just cut the English muffin in half, put some pizza sauce, sausage, and mozzarella cheese. Bake at 375 for 13 - 15 minutes.
Friday 1/20 Busy night - Sandwiches on the go! Turkey and Chicken, cheese sandwiches to take on the go. Baggies of pretzels and chips, apples, and drinks.
Saturday 1/21 Chicken Pot Pie - make 4 times what is needed and freeze into 3 more meals.
I will post this recipe when I get to it this week. *Will post this Saturday when I make it.
Sunday 1/22 Family Meal - Roast in the crock pot, baked potatoes, fresh steamed veggies
I am trying hard to keep up with my new baked goodie per day. It is getting difficult with life being so chaotic. But so far I am only off a day or two! I just have to keep up with the posts.
Enjoy!!
