The Freshman Cook: This Weeks Menu & Grocery List

This weeks menu is more of a traditional “meat & potatoes” meal. It is one of my husbands favorites. I am more of a chicken eater myself, but I can tell you that I used to sell sooooo many of these entrees. I used this entree recipe in three different restaurants, and it was always a hit!  I hope you like this menu. Next week I think we will go for something a bit lighter, and with a southwestern flavor!!
