Taste Test Results and New Menu...

Well, with all the new recipes that I tried over the last couple of weeks, the only one really worth mentioning was the Braised Beef with Sun Dried Tomatoes! I was a little worried about the sun dried tomatoes over powering the dish, but it didn't. It was a very nice compliment to the rest of the flavors. We gave it 5 stars all around and it definitely made our "keeper list"!!!

Well, I've been sick with a cold this week, so I apologize for the lateness on my menu for this week. Any ideas for next week's meals??? Please... my head still hurts!!!! ;) lol...

If only I had found this awesome food blog then!!! I just love Laura over at Real Mom Kitchen!!! She and I have the same tastes in food and we visit the same blogs. I've already bookmarked a handful of her wonderful recipes. You ought to go on over and take a look for yourself!
