The Routine

It's Pork Chop Day!! Well, it's not that routine at our house, but we get caught up in eating the same thing each week. It's partially laziness and partially a lack of creativity. Salmon is in our weekly rotation, some type of pasta, some type of pork, and perhaps a beef product. Our goal is to become more creative with what we make each week. Sure, we can eat salmon once a week, but we shouldn't prepare it the same way. It can be difficult when you're running low on time or just don't have the energy to think of something new. Let's get creative. Take two hours one day and plan out your week. Unfortunately, it feels like a chore to think of a menu. You start to feel like you're a chef planning the opening of your restaurant. It shouldn't scare us. Your challenge and mine? To create a menu for the week. Plan out the meals. I think we'll enjoy dinner time more.
On a separate note, I finally made it to Rodney's. They have pre-designed burgers or you can build your own. There's a large supply of free toppings and some premium toppings like, guacamole, bacon, and avocado. They have buffalo, beef, and maybe chicken. There are three types of fries, pencil-thin, steak fries, and sweet potato fries. It was very well made burger. Not too greasy, but not too lean. I recommend it.
