(Gave you seen these melamine plates from Caitlin Wilson? They’re sold out. I don’t want to talk about it.)
Monday: Trying something new in the slow cooker; Parmesan and Herb Roasted Chicken and Orzo.
Tuesday: That lasagna I talked about last week never happened, so I’m trying again this week. The meat is defrosted, and if I prep it after bedtime on Monday night, I won’t have anything to do on Tuesday.
Wednesday: The slow cooker is back on rotation for a short ribs dish. This in no way aligns with the summer weather we’re having, but I can only hold off on cooking hearty meat dishes for so long.
Thursday: Three nights of cooking in a row? Leftover time
Friday: Eek, I don’t know yet. I’m supposed to head out of town the next day, and so we’ll get creative with whatever is left in the fridge.
Saturday: Cooking up some risotto with Sous Chef Lauren! The most excited. It will likely be a hybrid of this one and this one, but with rice, not barley.
a glass of milk 
S- Grilled BBQ wings w/sweet potato hash (and rice a roni for Adam
M- Rich people meat (modified to omit soy sauce and bring in thsybonenwith the W that I can’t spell or pronounce) w/noodles and green beans
T- butterfly porkchops stuffed with/surrounded by stuffing (when I grocery shopped it said rain all day today… it didn’t. The meal happened anyway)
W- chicken noodle soup in the crockpot. (Continue to not let the weather dictate my meals. To apparently the temperature is supposed to continue to drop)
Th- leftovers because maybe hubs is out at dinner and our fridge is packed
F- omg. Can we have leftovers again? Maybe spaghetti? I’ve got chicken tenders but can’t have Mac and cheese so who knows!
I forgot Saturday- see Friday 😂
I made the slow cooker chicken and orzo recipe you included below! Success! So yummy…

So glad it turned out! That one is going on repeat here. Anything that doesn’t turn out too soupy in the slow cooker is always a win for me. (Except, you know, soup.)
