I've been cooking & Menu Plan Monday

I have a sweet friend from our life group at church who just had a baby. I have been anxious to bring her some food-love and catch a glimpse of her sweet new daughter Emily. I saw a really cute idea on Pinterest the other day of things to bring to new mom's, so I totally nabbed up that idea.

I made some Potato Soup. Hello.

I purchased some yummy french rolls. Yummy.

I sliced up some fresh strawberries, blueberries and grapes and put them in a cute little container for the new mommy's munching whenever she pleases.

AND..........I made some Caramel, Banana and Pecan muffins that nearly blew my mind. I allowed myself enough points to try a HALF of one tonight after I made them. I can't give something away unless I tried it, right? Wow. I wanted to eat 3, but I refrained. Hands down - best muffin I've had in awhile. I will post the recipe this week over at The Recipe Box - don't worry.

Speaking of - I made Asian Chicken lettuce wraps for dinner tonight and they didn't disappoint either if you want to check them out.

I am in a cooking mood right now, which my family doesn't mind at all. Here's what's on the agenda for the week.

Home-made Pizza
Spaghetti with home-made sauce (already in freezer!!)
Chicken Vegetable Stir-Fry
Barbacoa Beef with steamed rice.

I am looking forward to making all of the above. Yummy!

Hope you are having a great night!
