Recap
Sunday and Monday went as planned, and were quite tasty. On Tuesday I didn't get home early enough to start the soup, so we did Thursday's dinner instead. Wednesday went as planned, too. We used a recipe from the Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Cookbook (Lazy Day Braised Pot Roast). It was very tender, but the gravy didn't really turn out, and next time I think I would use half water and half beef broth to make it a little more flavorful. Thursday Brian ate with work people after work, and we did mac & cheese for the kids, so I just had something out of the freezer. Friday Brian wanted to grill, so we did teriyaki pork tenderloin, noodles, and teriyaki vegetables.
Not a bad week, and we'll move some of the planned meals to this week, which will make this week's grocery trip an easy one!
