2 weeks of meals

Well, last week was a little nuts so I didn’t get a chance to post. Made some slaw, salad, and it’s summer so it’s grilling season!

Started with this Iceberg and Cabbage Slaw, I’ll post the recipe info below. Since that had buttermilk in it, I also wanted to make another recipe with buttermilk, to use it up. Usually I’d make these Buttermilk Pancakes, but I really wasn’t feeling it, so I decided to try my hand at Skillet Cornbread instead. The slaw was very good, I just wish the hubs at slaw so I didn’t need to eat it all myself. But very flavorful. The cornbread…was a little dry, I think I’d make it with butter in the future, and not bother with the chives they didn’t really add anything.

I made a bunch of these Cobb Egg Salads to have throughout the week. I wish I could have packed them up in mason jars, but I didn’t have big enough ones. I added the rest of the cabbage and iceberg from the slaw, I just packed it up in ziplocks in the containers to keep it from getting soggy. Was pretty tasty, not quite enough dressing since I added the lettuce and stuff.

Then we went with some pineapple themed meat, grilling up Pineapple chicken tenders and these Teriyaki burgers again. Good stuff, and simple, plus I had the teriyaki sauce left over from Mother’s Day.

Threw in some Apple Grilled Chicken but made it with my strawberry jam instead.

Now this week, keeping it simple. Made some Cilantro Lime Chicken, some Juicy marinated steaks , and grilled 2 ears of corn.

Figured since I was on a little corn kick I’d continue that with Creamed corn and Zucchini Feta salad. Also was trying to use up some Ricotta from 2 weeks ago when we had the fresh strawberries. So in addition to those 2 things, I made this Spinach and Ricotta Baked Ziti, which was pretty good, although my hubby says it could have used a different cheese that was a sharper cheese.

Here’s some pics, was pretty happy with all my choices.
