Weekly Menu – What to cook this week!

Posts may contain affiliate links. Please see my Privacy Policy for further details.

These Weekly Menu recipes allow you to get out of that same ol’ recipe rut and try some delicious and easy dishes! This week I highly recommend making the Crispy Chicken Parmesan, Cucumber Ham Rollups, and my Aunt Nettie’s Orange Cranberry Nut Cake!

Happy Sunday TKW Family! One week into December and I’m already over the cold and gray weather. We had our first actual snowfall the other day. And of course, it had to be the day I was bringing Mr. Fantabulous home from surgery, at night, with regular all-season tires.

Yeah… that was fun. NOT!

Fortunately, growing up in Pittsburgh, I was taught to actually drive in snow and ice without panicking. That’s how we spot our tourists or newbies here. Watch how they drive (or attempt to drive) in the snow/ice here and you’ll they aren’t from here.

But I’ll be honest, I will always, ALWAYS love the ‘Burgh but I am so over this weather. I need sun, warmth, and blue skies.

TKW On YouTube

As I mention every Sunday, I have a YouTube channel. I’d LOVE and appreciate it if you subscribed there. I’m brand spanking new there and with the millions of TKW Family members out there, I really need to build up my subscription base there.

Not only am I creating videos for my newer recipes but I’m also going back and creating them for my most popular recipes.

Since I have 1000+ recipes posted, it’ll take me a little bit to get them all done but I’ll get there.

My goal is to do more longer-type 10-15 minute cooking videos where I talk to you while cooking – think TV-show but candid.

Candid in the sense of – I scrape the whole bowl out (no, we don’t waste stuff in my house), I’ll get batter on my face, flour on my chest and laugh at myself because I dropped/tripped/or just messed up what I was trying to say.

You’ll get me as me – true authentic Lori

Did you make a recipe? Leave a blog comment!

So why do I ask this? Two reasons:

Honest feedback is appreciated. It helps me learn and grow.
Most folks read the comments first before they decide on making a recipe or not.

We all visit blogs looking for delicious items and inspiration. What I find (and you should as well) the MOST USEFUL thing is the comments that people leave. Honest feedback, good or bad but respectful please, on a recipe.

You can give suggestions on what you’d tweak or a spin you put on it. Heck or just tell me that you loved it! Like how to make vegan, keto, or not use mushrooms.

This is how I grow and become better on here and it gives you guys real feedback. The absolute most critical thing you can do for me is to leave a comment on the blog recipe post.

When I look at someone else’s recipe I read the comments as to me, that’s honest feedback. So when you make a recipe of mine or plan on making it, leave a comment on the post. I, and everyone else that goes to my site, truly would appreciate it!
