Fall For Rigatoni

Meal Planning

If you’re a subscriber to The Organized Cook, you’re probably having Fall Rigatoni for dinner tonight.

Sweet, tangy jellied cranberry combined with zesty chili sauce makes this family dinner easy to “fall” for.

"Peared" with Fall Pear Walnut Salad

Another reason to love Fall- pears.

Dark yellow pears (Bosc) are harvested September through April, combined with Red Anjou and Anjou (green) pears, also harvested in the Fall, make the perfect fall salad- Fall Pear Walnut Salad.

A Spoonful of Honey and A Cup of Organization

Family Meal Planning Made Simple and Sweet

To celebrate Back To School, I’ve designed a meal plan this week to add a little sweetness and a lot of simplicity to your routine.

Crispy Honey Chicken from The Organized Cook

I start the week with Crispy Honey Chicken and a One-Minute Honey Dipping Sauce served with Buttered Corn on Cob and Spiced Apples.

After pounding my chicken flat, I use a beer batter mixed with honey for bit of sweetness.

Pound chicken with a meat tenderizer between two pieces of plastic wrap

 

Use beer or water to mix the batter along with a few squirts of honey.

You don't have to use beer if you don't want, but it does give it more flavor

 

Fry in canola or vegetable oil until crispy-honey brown.

Apples For Dinner?

Why not.  Apples are healthy and delicious, and make a perfect side-dish to this Crispy Honey Chicken.

Meal Planning Made Simple

Using cooking methods I like to call “Reusing Your Time” and “Reincarnating The Leftover” will save you a lot of time and money during the hectic week.

So, cooking more chicken than we need tonight and storing it in an airtight container in the refrigerator gives us a head start later on in the week when we reincarnate it into Chicken with Lemon Sauce.

It took me four attempts to perfect my recipe for lemon sauce. The results- delicious!
