For the last couple of weeks, I’ve made Beef stroganof (the cheat’s way) and it’s gone down a treat, especially with Chef who loves fillet steak. The children are just as fussy. If it’s not pasta carbonara tinned macaroni cheese or spaghetti bolognese, I’m stumped.

So, today, I’m scouring the recipe sites for a totally new menu, one I can use regularly. This looks like a good recipe for a start…

Cheesy One-Pot Chicken Cacciatore

1 tsp. oil

1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, chopped

2-1/2 cups water

2 zucchini, chopped

1 small onion, chopped

1 Tbsp. chopped fresh oregano

1 pkg. (14 oz.) KRAFT cheese

1 can (14-1/2 oz.) stewed tomatoes, drained

Heat oil in large pan on medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 5 min. or until browned.

ADD water, vegetables, oregano and Pasta. Bring to boil; simmer partially covered, 12 min. or until pasta is tender.

STIR in Cheese Sauce and tomatoes; cook until heated through.

Monday ~ Sausage, mash and onion gravy

Tuesday ~ Chicken Korma and Basmati rice

Wednesday ~ Spaghetti Bolognese

Thursday ~ Chicken and Bacon Casserole

Friday ~ The Chipper

Saturday ~ Beef Stroganoff with noodles

Sunday ~ Roast Dinner

Here goes…

It’s day one and I’m still in bed. I’ve coughed so hard I may have pulled something. It’s so painful.

I know I’ve woken Chef a few times during the night, he’s had to be up by 5.30 each morning to go to work.

I’m following the Flylady’s Beginner BabySteps How hard can it be? If I stick to one small task per day, surely things will get easier in the home and I’ll have a good schedule by the end of the month.

And a good cleaner!
