Maleesa, I love strombolis, but have never made them. Most of the recipes I have seen for them seem time consuming and I didn't even have most of the ingredients. Is your recipe any easier? Would love to make them.
-
LOL, My son has been asking me to make stromboli (I am not sure why.. he has never had it) but I would love the recipe too!

Stromboli Recipe
Dough:
1 1/2 cup barely warm water
1/3 cup sugar
1 tsp. salt
1/4 cup dry milk
4 cups flour
2 tsp. active dry yeast
Put all ingredients in bread machine pan in the order given. Select dough setting.
Divide dough in half. Roll each ball of dough into a 10x14 inch rectangle.
Filling:
pizza sauce
2 cups or more of shredded mozzarella cheese
Pepperoni
Top each rectangle with pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese and pepperoni. Bring each long side of the dough to the center. Seal the seam with your fingers. Fold each end of dough over and seal. Place seam side down on greased cookie sheet.
Egg mixture:
1 egg, beaten
4 Tablespoons melted butter
2 Tablespoons grated Parmesan
1-2 teaspoons garlic powder
Mix together in small bowl.
Dried oregano
Brush each Stromboli with egg mixture. Sprinkle with dried oregano.
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before slicing. If your in a hurry defrost a frozen loaf of bread and let thaw and roll it out.

Egg Drop Soup
1 Quart - Chicken Broth
4 Eggs
1 tsp - Soy Sauce
1 tsp - Corn Starch
2 tsp - Water
1/4 tsp - pepper
1 - Green Onion (chopped)
In a pan combine broth soy sauce and pepper. ( optional for the soy sauce)
Bring to a boil over medium heat. Combine corn starch and water to make a slurry and pour into the simmering broth to thicken slightly.
Beat the four eggs thoroughly and slowly drizzle back and forth into the broth. With a spoon lightly move the broth back and forth to prevent the eggs from clumping together.
Garnish with green onion. I use more corn starch and water. I just make it to how thick I want it.
Vegetable Lo Mein with ramen noodles -
I don't really have a recipe for this. Take how many packet of ramen noodles you would like. I use 2 for 4 of us. I let them soak in the hot water until absorbed as much as they can. I usually do it a couple hours ahead of time and leave them in the microwave.
In a pan I sauté 1/2 bag of carrots and peas, green onions, or yellow onion, mushrooms, celery sliced thin. You can what ever veggies you want or what ever you have on hand. Add in the noodles and stir. Just taste as you go so it does not get salty. You don't have to add in the seasoning packets if you don't want to. I like the extra flavor from them so I add them first and mix in with the noodles and then add the soy sauce and oyster sauce to taste. Add in some oyster sauce or soy sauce or a little of both and the seasoning packets from your ramen noodles. I use shrimp or oriental noodles. But in a pinch I have used chicken flavored ones also and they were fine.

LOL, My son has been asking me to make stromboli (I am not sure why.. he has never had it) but I would love the recipe too!
Here's an idea, Erica. Since you'll be making them anyway, why not just whip up 10-12 extra and send them over to this culinarily challenged chick! LOL ;) :) I think I made up a new word there. :D

Maleesa, your menu looks good! I'm mainly eating from our freezer too but I've not been very creative lately.
-
OK, I am going to give the menu thing a whirl from Feb. 23- March 1. No particular order, because that would be just WAY too much organization. ;)
Homemade pizza and green beans
Creamy squash soup and grilled cheese sandwiches
Chicken, kale, and cheese wraps and sweet peas
Lasagna, mixed vegetables and salad
French chicken, baked potatoes and salad
Baked spaghetti. homemade bread and salad
Roast or steaks, cooked carrots, seasoned rice
Now, we will just have to see how well I stick to this. If I can plan a week at a time and stick to it, I'll be happy with that! :)
Maleesa, are you using the famous Duggar tator tot casserole recipe by chance?

I do sorta? I do a pound of burger cooked with onion, Celery ( stuff left from cleaning celery top and diced it up and throw it in the freezer. So when I need celery I have it) and some green pepper. Pepper, season salt and garlic powder. Then drain add in 1 can of each cream of chicken soup & cream of mushroom soup and instead of a can of evaporated milk I do a can of what ever milk I have and mix it up and put over the meat mixture in a cake pan. Top it with a 32 oz. bag of tator tots and bake 350 for 1 hour. If I have mushrooms that need to be used up I also diced them up small and cook with the burger and the kids never know there in there ;)
