Monday: Sweet, Sticky and Spicy Chicken (pictured) from allrecipes.com. This turned out so good. It was easy and quick and really yummy. Also, the leftovers were awesome the next day for lunch.
Tuesday: tried and true Taco Soup
Wednesday: Chicken Greek Pasta Actually a friend made this and brought it over. It was amazing! I only got a couple bites, but since I LOVE Greek food, this will be seen again soon on our table.

I love that I can read all those reviews on allrecipes and get the "tweaking" suggestions to better the dish! I am excited to be eating some of the same meals as you guys this week (especially the Cafe Rio pork).
I made the sticky chicken on Friday night- AMAZING!!! I followed some of the reviewer's suggestions on allrecipes and I was VERY pleased!
