Merry Christmas 2011

Hope everyone had a blessed Christmas!
This was our first Christmas with just us ; my husband, daughter and I. All of our other family had plans to go to Florida this year and since I am 34 ,about to be 35 weeks pregnant on tuesday, I cant travel. So I made Christmas dinner for my family for the first time .We made cookies opened presents and just had a nice relaxing time no rushing around or family drama lol


Proud of myself stuffing, green beans, chicken, and mac and cheese


The food!



A happy Christmas baby

Whats for Dinner?

This weeks Meal plan!!

Monday: Lemon peppered Talapia brown rice and steamed veggies

Wednesday: Dinner Out ( we go to a couples night at a friends)

Thursday: Bean, beef and cheese burritos add your own toppings

Friday: Chili with black beans and rice

Tonights Meal: Lemon pepper Talapia, brown rice and steamed mixed veggies

thaw talapia and then season with black pepper, season salt and lemon pepper. Oil pan with olive oil and then   cook fish until it has the texture you desire ( i cook it for about 10 min). cook brown rice  for 7-5 min and then let it stand for 5 min. I used frozen mixed veggies so i justed boiled some water and then added the veggies i let them cook for 7 min. and then added salt and pepper :) 

The Talapia is all broken up, it got stuck to the pan :( but it still tasted good 

 Happy Monday!!
