Weekly Menu 5-2-21

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 Chipotle Shrimp & Chicken Tuscan Pasta Toss, Vegetarian Sweet Potato Chipotle Tacos, and the Dulce de Leche Chocoflan!

Happy Sunday TKW Family and Happy Birthday month to me!  Are birthdays a big deal for you or do you treat them just like another day? I’m one of those where it’s not about the presents but I do love it when Mr. Fantabulous does even more special little things.

Like he’s not a cook or baker but every year he and his sous Chef (Betty Crocker) take over my kitchen and make me a birthday cake, he plans a meal or night out and makes the day all about me.

Weekly Menu 5-2-21


For me, it’s the little things that I cherish more than any big gift or fancy thing. The handwritten notes, or going outside and seeing my car freshly washed and waxed, or him making me a cake.

I’m not one that honestly likes a big fuss made as I hate being the center of attention which is ironic as I’m so transparent on here and on social media. But when it’s my birthday, when he makes a big deal out of it, it just warms my heart.

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:

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

Leave a comment on The Kitchen Whisperer

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!
