weekly menu posts from 8/27 through 9/2

since my surgery I still cannot eat much at all and sometimes, I will only eat a piece of toast all day or a bowl of cereal but am hoping all that will change soon...

and have I mentioned we are having 100+ degrees for the rest of the week and the poor kids and teachers started school today too?

Saturday................we had ham and turkey tortilla rollups
Sunday..................I made bacon waffles and eggs for lunch
                              chefs salad was good for this terrible heat wave we are under for dinner
Monday.................honey sesame chicken over rice in the slow cooker
Tuesday.................creamy pasta bacon and peas
Wednesday............korean beef
Thursday...............slow cooker meat loaf
Friday....................applebees copycat chicken salad
Saturday...............corn chowder, hopefully the heat will have subsided at least a little by then...

happy eating

I don't usually make short ribs, they are a little on the expensive side for me but a found a bunch marked down in the meat section...cat would have loved these...

very easy to prepare and they fell apart...

everyone loved them...

I'm back
