It’s Meal Plan Monday, and I am here for it! This week’s meals are top notch and I am so excited to dig in! If you haven’t read last week’s MPM post, go here and do it! I break down eMeals in detail and its super helpful! 

Now that you have the skinny, here is this week’s meal plan! If you want a recipe, just click the pink link.

Monday: Cheesy Pepperoni Calzones with Easy Caesar Salads

Mondays can be a little crazy! I am always making up for my weekend of baking and family time. I am a huge fan of easy meals that I can trust Addie will usually eat without fuss. I saw this one and decided it looked too good to pass up!

Tip: A good pizza wheel makes life so much easier! This one is my favorite! I also love these salad choppers for quick salad prep!

 

Tuesday: Chicken and Wild Rice, Roasted Asparagus and Carrots with Honey

Tuesdays are Michael’s long work days, so I usually have both girls by myself. While juggling work and the house. I am always a fan of easy crockpot meals on these days.

Tip: I absolutely love my RockCrock! This RockCrock slow cooker set is even better! Multi-functional and dishwasher safe!

Wednesday: Loaded Chicken with Asparagus

This one was an easy sell for me! Bacon, ranch and cheese on chicken?? Yes, please!

Tip: Cook this dish in a cast iron baker like this one so that you can go from stovetop to oven without dirtying an extra dish! You can also steam the asparagus in a micro-cooker for easier clean up!

Thursday: Chicken Parmesan, Angel Hair Pasta and Garlic Spinach

Another Crockpot meal! And who doesn’t love a good chicken parm? The spinach addition to this one sounded so good! Plus it is a bit lighter without the full breading, so that is a win in my book. 

Friday: Cornbread Mexican Wedges

Fri-yay! I love me a good Mexican meal on Fridays to wrap up the week! Plus, this is a quickie and I am all about that.

Saturday: Beef and Zucchini Casserole with Mandarin Orange Salad

A little bit healthier on this Saturday, but still delicious! This one is a kid-friendly recipe, and I am excited to see if my kiddos like it! 

Tip: The RockCrock Dutch Oven is perfect for this dish! I use mine literally every day. It goes from stove top, to oven, to dishwasher which is a major time saver.

Sunday: Pear and Gorgonzola Chicken-Pesto Pizza

Pizza family over here! This non-traditional twist on pizza sounds like heaven and I cannot wait to try it. Anyone else super adventurous with pizza?! 

Tip: A good pizza peel makes removing your pizza from a stone or the oven rack so much easier!  Not to mention, it makes you feel a little fancy, and I like to feel fancy. 

There you have it! My quick 15-minute meal plan packed with tons of flavor and variety!  If you want to see a live video of how this system works, check this video out HERE!

Without even noticing, the little piles of laundry Without even noticing, the little piles of laundry have grown into larger ones. The socks are less and less tiny. Footie sleepers switch over to two pieces. 

You are so proud of first words but suddenly you realize that you ache for that sweet baby babble, too. An ever-expanding vocabulary replaces those precious mis-phrases that signify just how little our babies are. 

Each new tooth is celebrated, but yet you miss that gummy smile. You are so proud of first steps, but yet you miss the reliance and safety of carrying them everywhere. 

You rejoice at the relief of self-soothing, but there is a tiny piece of your heart that misses rocking them to sleep. They start taking naps in their own cribs rather than snuggled on your chest. The glorious sleep-through-the-night happens, but in the corner of your mind, you would give anything for one more midnight cuddle. 

Nursing sessions drop and bottles are replaced by sippy cups. One day you hand them a whole chicken nugget, and without even realizing it, your baby grows up a little. You stop tediously cutting food into tiny pieces and think that you are glad that phase is over. Until the reality sets in that this thing doesn’t move in reverse. 

You start to check the Owlet less frequently. Then you don’t check it. And then one day you don’t put it on them at all. 

They begin to dress themselves. They read the books to you at bedtime. They brush their own teeth. You celebrate and encourage the independence, but at the same time you wish for just a few more days of being so very needed. 

The clutter makes you crazy, but one day there are less toys to pick up. Stuffed animals switch over to basketballs and televisions. Skinned knees turn into broken hearts. Cocomelon turns into Paw Patrol, and then one day they are watching the same shows as you. 

Slow down and take it in. These days will be over before you know it. And in the midst of feeling a little like you have lost yourself, realize that just maybe you have truly been found. #slowdowntime #allthefeels #motherhood #thisismotherhood #momblogger

While working my way through the first day of the While working my way through the first day of the "Preaching the Gospel to Yourself" study by the Daily Grace Co., I came across this quote. Well, I paraphrased it into my own words, but a truth very similar to this. Specifically in reference to Adam and Eve in this case. Their disobedience was more than just disobedience. It was an attempt to be god. 

As I read those words though, it really hit home for me personally. Failure to trust in God’s goodness, provision and authority is sin- plain and simple. Putting more stock in my own ability to figure things out, make things right, dictate the way things should go- more than my faith that my Father has it worked out- is sin. When I play god in my own life, I am glorifying myself and showing that I don’t truly trust and believe in His goodness. 

Total heart check on this icy, rainy morning. I may not have a carved idol sitting in my living room, but I have set up an idol in my own heart. We live in a go-getter culture. Any time spent browsing social media, we are flooded with self-empowerment quotes. Promises that we can do anything we set our minds to and we have all power and authority over the way our lives go. (Not that I don’t believe in the power of the human mind, setting goals, working hard, etc.), but this is such a dangerous culture. It sets us up for a “little god” complex. In all actuality, I cannot do it all. I have a need for Jesus. And this self-elevation is sin. 

Sin condemns me. Because of His nature and goodness, sin puts me at odds with God. The beauty here though, lies in salvation. From the very moment that Adam and Eve sinned in the garden, God promised a way out (Genesis 3:15). He promised Jesus. If we have accepted Him, we are freed from the guilt and shame of our sin. 

After allowing my heart to marinate in that truth for a few minutes, I was overcome by a sense of peace. How freeing and beautiful that I don’t have to bear the weight of my life! I don’t have the power to totally screw it up if I make a mistake. The pressure to make sure everything is perfect is lifted. We do not have to carry the full weight, because Jesus is bearing it for us! [continued in comments👇🏻]
Is there anything quite like fresh, homemade bread Is there anything quite like fresh, homemade bread!? There’s just some thing about it that is so cozy to me. 🍞 
Swipe for the recipe for this simple Dutch oven bread! it’s one but you can make even if you are not a seasoned baker. (And if you don’t have a Dutch oven, message me! I can hook you up 🥰)
