Leftover Taco Salad

We had this earlier in the week and there was still plenty of everything left.

Chili Dogs and french fries

I know there is nothing healthy about this meal, but it tastes so good. Jack loves hot dogs and this is a special treat for us every once in a while.

Artichokes, lemon-buttered linguine

The artichokes are the main attraction of this meal. I grew up eating artichokes and was so happy to introduce Josh to this yummy vegetable early in our marriage. Simply boil them and serve with melted butter for dipping. We always place a large bowl in the center of the table to throw in the leaves when you are done with them. This is a fun meal, I promise.

Szechwan Beef Stir Fry, served with chinese noodles

Leftover Baked Ziti, garlic bread, salad

Breaded Pork Chops, mashed potatoes and country gravy, peas

We love breaded or country-fried anything. Add cream gravy to the mix and it can't be beat. I will have a special post later in the week on breading and frying meat. This is a simple process and can be used with chicken, beef, pork, or fish.
