Trying to catch...

Already 4 days into February and I am trying to catch up. Filed our taxes the last day of January, as well as Kolton started back at Day Nursery. He is still iffy about it, but once we leave he starts to interact with the other kids. He has been dealing with sinus infection and bronchitis since Sunday and I hope he starts to feel better soon. I hate seeing him sick. Well, I have decided to start a long "To-List" as well as a "Daily List" to hopefully catch up on projects around the house. Well, this is going to be short till I can catch up on these lists but wanted to show what I have cooked this past week.

First one was the beef enchilada bake --

Ingredients needed (besides the scissors and baby meds)

Prepared and waiting for it to cook:

Not the greatest, but was still good:

BAKE 25 min. or until heated through.

Lately I decided to try Italian Chicken. Really easy and its a crockpot meal (added carrots half way through the cooking):

Kolton ate half a chicken breast, didn't care for carrots or the rice but he was eating.

Recipe:

Italian Chicken

• One bottle of your favorite Italian salad dressing
• 6 Chicken Breasts

Stick the chicken breasts in the crockpot and pour the Italian Dressing over them. Cook on high for 4-6 hours until completely cooked through. Serve over brown rice.

For variation, you can add in a bag of frozen veggies halfway through.
