Ramblings of a Crazy Woman

I have loved pre making my meals on Saturday or Sunday,  then not cooking for the rest of the week. It is awesome. It gives me SOOOO much more time in the evening.  I do not have to think what are we going to eat and way less clean up. I wish I had started this earlier. I did my cooking on Saturday this week. Sunday:  Beef Stew    Go here for RECIPE     I made it on Saturday, reheated on Sunday and served with rice and crackers. Monday: Calzone   Go here for RECIPE ,        The next 4 meals I made together to fix in any order.  I got these recipes at The Test Kitchen of Melissa Fallis.

This weeks MENU: MONDAY:    Santa Fe Chicken Casserole     Recipe   I omitted green onions and added pepper jack cheese.  I pre cooked the chicken in the Crock Pot.
