clean chicken cacciatore

I wrote this yesterday but I wanted to wait so I didn’t take away from the tribute that yesterday should represent. Sooo… Yay for the Jets!! The Fatkid is from New York and because I love him I love the Jets too. I have always been a fan of football but liked college better. When we started dating I adopted the Jets and then watching Rex Ryan on Hard Knocks last year just sealed the deal for me. Today’s game was sooooo good and they made an incredible comeback. Now…..on to food: The Fatkid is obsessed with these individual meatloaves so he asked for them this week. I also tried Jamie Eason’s marinade of 1 tbsp dijon...

a week’s worth of food

I have written before about how I like to prep out food for the week on Sundays and that was definitely my day yesterday – mixed with lots of studying.  I knew the Fatkid was getting home around 8 so I wanted to be mostly done with cooking by then. But that never happens and I wasn’t done until around 9:30 – hence the next day post. Sorry Before I get to food I had to share this picture of our bug Tyson – he is the cutest thing ever and John felt bad he stepped on him so he let him lick his Coldstone container. So – yesterday I made all of the following: Stuffed chicken with: spinach, onion, mushroom, 1/2 piece Laughing Cow Lite...
