WEEKLY MEAL PLAN FOR 7/18

Jul 18, 2022menus + recipes

Sorry this is late, loves! Here’s to a really good week. Don’t forget to ask for help with the cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, etc. if you need it!!! And (whatever you do) don’t wait until your overwhelmed and exhausted to do so… It’s summer and you should be living it up like the rest of the fam. Mkay?!

  • MONDAY: Orzo Pasta Salad
  • TUESDAY: Sheet Pan Fajitas (will add shrimp to the mix for anyone needing a break from chicken this week, lol)
  • WEDNESDAY: Slow Cooker Apricot Chicken over Rice
  • THURSDAY: Leftovers
  • FRIDAY: Grilled Pizza Night and watermelon mint salad!
  • YAY! SATURDAY!: Beef Bulgogi Lettuce Wraps (because we have SO MUCH LETTUCE growing in the garden)
  • SUNDAY: Saucy Thai Summer Noodle Stir Fry with Sesame Peanuts (tell me this doesn’t look so, so good)
  • BREAKFAST: Huevos Rancheros, Chunky Monkey Protein Shakes + Croissants, Green Smoothie + Cheesy Scrambled Eggs
  • LUNCH: Nachos, Leftovers, + PB+Js
  • SNACK: Fill summer snacking bins! In the fridge: dips, yogurt, cheese, deli meat, veggies, + fruit. In the pantry: pretzels, pita chips, tortilla chips, trail mix, graham crackers, + bananas.
  • HAPPY HOUR: Wine + a walk with your bestie!

QUICK REMINDER: There are very few things that can’t be fixed by a timely hug, quick walk, fun company, good music, and some good ol’ fashioned team work.

xx, Rae

CRISP & FLUFFY HOMEMADE WAFFLE RECIPE

YOU’LL NEED:
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs (divide egg and yoke)
1-2/3 cup whole milk
1/3 cup butter, melted
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
TOPPING IDEAS: butter, maple syrup, whipped cream, *sprinkles, peanut butter, jam, *cacao nibs, chocolate chips, powdered sugar, berries, bananas, cinnamon, sliced peaches, fried or scrambled egg, etc.

HERE’S HOW:
Preheat your waffle iron and melt butter over low, if using stovetop.
In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, baking powder, and sugar. Whisk together.
Divide the egg yolk and whites into two separate medium sized bowls.
Add the milk, butter, and vanilla extract to the yolk bowl and mix to combine.
With a hand or stand mixer, beat the egg whites on medium-high until stiff peaks form. Should only take a couple minutes and makes the waffles so fluffy!
Pour yolk and milk mixture into the dry ingredients and stir or whisk until combined, being careful not to over-mix. Add the egg whites and fold them into the batter gently.
Heat oven to 250-275 degrees to keep cooked waffles warm and crisp. Lightly grease waffle iron (I like to brush on a little butter). Use a measuring cup to pour batter onto waffle iron, until wells are almost covered. Close the iron and cook for about 4 minutes or until golden brown. (Tip: This is a great time to prep toppings or tidy up the kitchen. If you’re like me though, be sure to set a timer!)
Place cooked waffles in a single layer, directly on rack in oven. When ready, top and serve!
