Chicken Parmesan Risotto

We really like this dish, and I don't know why it's probably been years since I've made it. It's quick, it's easy and it's yummy. I'm putting it back on my regulars list.

The kids however... meh.
I planned ahead and set aside some of the chicken before I added the soup/spices/tomatoes and rice so I could offer them both the rice dish and plain bites of chicken. Savannah hates rice. But the kids both ate well... Sawyer did have a few bites of the rice, but other than that they at least both gobbled up the chicken (which is rare for Sawyer), ate some green beans and grapes and Savannah even had two helpings of asparagus.

Definite thumbs up from us and I'm counting it as a someday 'go' for Sawyer, just not for Savannah since she's anti-rice always.

gong me

Did I mention I'm in a no-cooking slump?
Did I mention it's not really a slump as maybe more of a ditch? A canyon? A bottomless pit?

I made up a nice menu yesterday for the whole week. Even started out super easy for Monday... how much simpler can you get than throwing frozen corn dogs and french fries into the oven? But did I do it? Noooo.
Instead we hit Subway while out grocery shopping. Talk about laz eeee.

Today, I'm on though.
Chicken Parmesan Risotto, here we come.
I'll let you know how fast my kids run away from the table.

Well, It's About Time...

I need to get on the ball around here. I have been so unmotivated making meals around our house. Not only have the kids been doing their regular "gonging" right and left, but I've had no appetite lately either... food is just a hassle and too much work and nobody around here seems to want to eat anything I make anyway (including myself), so why bother? LOL!

So here's our menu for this week; we'll see what comes of it...

Monday: Corn Dogs and Fries
Tuesday: Chicken Parmesan Risotto
Wednesday: Crock Pot Potatoes
Thursday: Salmon Burgers
Friday: Pizza
Saturday: Sausage and Cheese Scramble
Sunday: Lasagna Rolls
