Something new but long overdue

If you know me, you know that I don't cook. I bake every so often, but actually cooking is just not my thang. However, it is a new year (the middle of a new year lol) and I was DETERMINED to cook a meal for the next 5 days. So here's my menu:

Sunday: Chicken and Broccoli Casserole. I got the recipe from a family friend, Amy. Her blog is amazing and this girl is so creative/talented and she's cool peoples---lol. Still contemplating whether or not to eat rice with this??

Monday: Roast Beef with Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Corn

Tuesday: Crispy Chicken Wraps. Recipe from this blog. This is one of my fav foodie blogs and I've been wanting to try this recipe for a while now.

Wednesday: Pineapple Ham with Cheesy Potatoes. Ok so I changed the name from "funeral" to cheesy becase cheesy sounds more appetizing to me :) The Cheesey Potatoes recipe I also got from Amy's blog.

Thursday: Garlic Chicken Spinach Pasta w/lion house rolls. REALLY looking forward to this one! This is also a recipe from this blog. Both recipes are from that blog.

Friday: BREAK from cooking---lol

WISH ME LUCK!! I'm going to need it ;)

Love,

P.S. My budget for this 5 day meal deal was $100. Meat and all! I pretty much had to buy everything and I $1.07 OVER budget (but I bought cookies-lol). So I would have been UNDER budget!
