Meal plan and some experimenting

This week should be a lot of fun in the kitchen. I am either trying new recipes or slightly modifying a few other ones I've tried in the past.

My first new recipe is a red marinara sauce cooked in the crock pot, using sausage links instead of ground beef. My second new recipe is pancakes. I will make a lot of them, eat a few, and put the rest in the freezer. Once our little girl comes and I want a quick lunch, I can place them in the toaster, and vuala! - they'll be ready to eat! My third new recipe is a true experiment - corn dog muffins. I will also be placing extra of these in the freezer for when our girl comes.

As of recipes with slight modifications, I am doing two. The first one is the chicken empanadas, this time I am going to add some black beans to them. The second recipe will be homemade frozen pizzas. I have cut out four 9'' diameter cardboard pieces and covered them in tinfoil. I will place the slightly cooked pizza crust on it and all of it's toppings. Then stick it in the freezer. When in need for a quick meal, just take them out and stick them in the oven to let them finish cooking :)
