We’re continuing with our meal planning. Hooray! It’s not difficult, but does require me to make an actual plan. The wonderful thing is that Sarah has gotten to the age (and experience) where she can do a good portion of the work.
And, it turns out, if you abandon her, say, and go off to a meeting, leaving her with a recipe and ingredients and strict instructions to feed her father and brother, she can do all the work!!
Gathering the ingredients
I had a Board meeting for our homeschool co-op, and I left Sarah with instructions to make dinner.
“Let me see if I understand everything here.”
She did beautifully – read through all the directions before I left. Gathered all the ingredients – again, before I left. And prepared dinner.
“I’ve got this, Mom! Go to your meeting!”
I got a text from David in the middle of my meeting.
“Oh, Mom! I am soooooo stuffed! I ate so much of Sarah’s dinner. It was delicious!!”
Hooray, a success. Obviously I didn’t take any pictures of the final recipe (since I was gone), but it was taken from Pinch of Yum website and turned out perfectly. We used slightly less peppers, but otherwise followed the recipe.
Note to readers – MAKE THIS RECIPE!! So tasty.
This recipe was so yummy! I’m definitely adding it to our rotation again. I have found wonderful recipes on the pinchofyum site. And her photography is gorgeous! Visit this blog as soon as you can – it is a delight to the eyes and the palate.
Can’t wait to see what Sarah makes next!

Yay, Sarah!! That does sound good. And “pinch of yum” is such a great name that I’ll have to look into that.
Go Sarah!
