I was a total slacker last week and didn’t get our menu up for you guys. We went back to school and 4th grade is kicking my butt! 😂 I had grossly underestimated the amount of time it would take to get through our bookwork this year! So anyway, on to this week’s menu!
White Castle Pie: Drew was craving some white castle pretty bad so I googled this one and we tried it. It was a change to our original menu but it was good, easy and worth the change. I didn’t figure out the carb count on this one, it is probably a little higher than most because of the onions but it was yummy. I’d definitely say it is low carb but you may have to be careful to fit it into your macros if you had a higher carb lunch. https://mariasmixingbowl.com/low-carb-white-castle-pie/
Broccoli, Ham and Cheese Casserole: This one was new to us also. It’s a one pot meal so no need to think about a veggie side. He says in the recipe it would be easy to double and I’d suggest that too because the way the recipe is written it only fed my family one meal with no leftovers. It was also more runny than I expected so the next time I make it I may try to change up the ingredients a bit. But my pickiest eater was done first so I’d say it was a success! https://www.simplefunketo.com/blog/broccolihamcheese
Garlic Steak Bites and Zoodles: This one is sort of becoming a staple in our house. It is one that is loved by all and not too complicated to make. Also, another one where veggies are included so easy to plan and not have to think about a side. https://www.eatwell101.com/garlic-butter-steak-bites-zucchini-noodles-recipe
Crock Pot Crack Chicken: We start back to church this week so Wednesday’s meals will probably always be crock pot meals, its easy and ready when we are ready to sit down. This one is another fan favorite and I add a bag of frozen broccoli about 30 minutes before we are ready to eat and voila! https://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/a26845155/keto-crack-chicken-recipe/
Crock pot beef fajitas: I’ve shared this one in the past on my blog. Easy and no arguing with the kiddos to eat!
Sesame Orange Chicken: This one I’ll have to finagle some to make work with the honey and oj as ingredients but I’m exited to try it. I’ll also use Xantham gum instead of arrowroot to thicken it. https://againstallgrain.com/2017/11/29/instantpot-orange-sesame-chicken-recipe/
Meatball Tortilla Soup: This will be a new for my family recipe too. I’ll sub pork rinds for the bread crumbs in the meatballs and leave out the corn and beans in the soup. I’m excited for this one, I love warm soups! https://www.landolakes.com/recipe/19173/meatball-tortilla-soup/
