Happy Monday, friends! Well, for one person in our household, school begins today. Sophomore year of college and I am one proud mama! Last week our temps felt like early fall and I was sooo not ready for it. It rained, it got cold, and I wore jeans. It was weird. I didn't feel ready. Oh, and did I mention I started working on fall recipes?
However, the temperature is changing back to summer this week and despite warmer temps, I'll still be working on fall recipes and cooking some good food that is cozy while still feeling a bit like summer. Although, to be honest at the moment as I'm writing this I am bundled up under a blanket because I am so cold!
Here's what's on the menu this week:
Homestyle Mini Meatloaves
These homestyle mini meatloaves finally won my husband over to meatloaf! What's the secret? Besides scrumptious flavors, broiling right at the end adds a yummy crusty texture to the outside!
Polynesian Chicken
This ultra-simple, super-fast recipe for Polynesian Chicken is one of our busy week night go-to favorites! Five ingredients, 30 minutes, and so much flavor!
Chicken Gyros
This recipe for easy chicken gyros with tzatziki sauce is simple, filling, and fast. It can be on the table in 30 minutes and is easy prep ahead of time!
Cowboy Steak Salad
This is not your typical salad. It's got blue cheese. It's got potatoes. It's got steak. If you want a hearty, tasty dinner...cowboy steak salad!
Bacon-Wrapped Cheese Dogs
This is so easy, it's barely even a recipe! Instead of plain ole' hotdogs, why not punch it up with some bacon wrapped cheese dogs?
Overnight Sausage Egg & Cheese Breakfast Casserole
This overnight sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast casserole recipe is incredibly simple to prepare, and so convenient when you don't have time to cook in the morning!
Baked Macaroni and Cheese
A simple baked macaroni and cheese that's creamy on the inside and crispy on top. The perfect side dish for almost any occasion.
Blueberry Swirl Cheesecake
It's pretty, it's tasty, it's easy...and it's cheesecake. This blueberry swirl cheesecake recipe is begging you to make it...won't you?
Okay, I'm not going to fully share pumpkin recipes with you yet, but I am going to share my Fall and Halloween Recipe Pinterest board, for those of you either eager for fall or perhaps living somewhere where fall is already upon you (between you and me, it is way too soon for anything Halloween, despite whatever Costco thinks...). I'm going to leave you with this menu and also let you know that I've got some fun recipes coming up this week! Have a fun last week of August, friends!
