Links: Tuesday Thursday Weekend
So ~ So glad that I'm staying on top of this! I will confess that we skipped last Friday's enchilada casserole. On the way to Luke's practice that day he asks...
'I like your cooking Mom but are we ever going to eat in a restaurant again?'
When we got in the car to go home we surprised him with Japanese Teppan. I figure if we're gonna eat out, let's go somewhere that's not like home. It's sad but true... my performance does not come close, there are no onion steam trains or pyrotechnic shows at home. So boring I know.
Last week~ I did make my TURKEY meatloaf
It's a healthier version and I like lots of stuff in mine - here's the recipe with pics if you would like to give it a try...
Few tips:
- Get turkey out of the fridge 20 minutes before you mix it (if you plan on using your hands- brrrr).
- Add sauteed onions and garlic - way better flavor (in olive oil with a pinch of seasoning).
- You can substite or add what ever veggies you want just don't use potato or anything else that will dry out your meatloaf.
- You can double this- prepare in 2 pans. Pop one in the oven and pop one in the freezer. Next week - defrost for 1 day in fridge and then bake it for dinner as directed.

Wasn't that easy ~
While it's cooking you will need to whip up some real mashed potatoes and a veggie or salad to go with. Remove from oven and let it rest for at least 5 minutes.
Serve on your finest china, just like I do.
Don't forget the ketchup, it's real good with more ketchup on top.
Enjoy~
