We are exhausted from vacation, so something easy. Peanut turkey burgers and sweet potato fries.

Paula Deen's Mac & Cheese is in the crock pot now.  DH is at work tonight and then going to Vegas tomorrow....so I'm planning on munching on that all weekend, yum!

Tacos. I am totally going to cook tonight. Mostly because if I make tacos tonight, we can have taco salads tomorrow and I can avoid cooking.

Grilled pork chops (or baked since it is now raining), mixed veggies and stuffing--I love stuffing even when it isn't Thanksgiving

Our menu for the week:

M: skinny taste chicken cordon bleu, asparagus & some yummy roasted red potatoes (I cut them into little wedges, tossed in a bit of leftover pesto and baked 'em up till they were all browned and crispy - they were so good - the chicken was so so, I didn't love it)

T: grilled lamb kebabs (slightly adapted Ina Garten recipe, marinated in yogurt, rosemary, lemon juice and garlic, they were incredible!) couscous w/ pistachios & craisins, roasted broccoli and cauliflower

W: morningstar veggie 'chicken' patties, sweet potato oven fries, salad from a bag

T: picked up Subway

F: taco friday (turkey taco meat, black beans, salsa & homemade guac)

S: maple mustard pork chops, mashed sweet taters, green beans (the fancy skinny kind sauteed with lots of garlic, yum!)

S: penne w/ spinach, chicken and tomato cream sauce, green salad

DH stayed home from work today, and came home early yesterday, so I've been lucky! He's a much better cook than me. Tonight, we're having fettuccine with sweet pepper cayenne sauce. We've never tried this recipe, but sounds pretty good! We love allrecipes.com.

Ingredients

• 12 ounces dry fettuccine pasta
• 2 red bell peppers, julienned
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 cup reduced fat sour cream
• 3/4 cup chicken broth
• 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
2. Meanwhile, spray cooking oil in a large skillet and saute red bell peppers, garlic and cayenne pepper over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes.
3. Stir in sour cream and broth; simmer uncovered for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in cheese.
4. Toss hot pasta with sauce and season with salt and pepper to taste; serve.

Very spicy! DH even used less cayenne pepper than the recipe called for, and it was still pretty spicy.
