chicken spinach pasta - Zesty chicken is one of my favorite ways to prepare chicken and this pasta dish is just another way we've come up with for eating it.
sour cream pancakes - A friend gave me The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Recipes from an Accidental Country Girl as a Christmas gift and this was the first recipe we tried from it. These pancakes have very little flour, so the texture is different than most pancakes, but all the Ws thought they tasted great.
rosemary parmesan brussels sprouts - These were our first attempt at roasting brussels sprouts. Actually, it was the first time everyone except me had ever had brussels sprouts at all. They were good, though I liked them better as leftovers.
roasted brussels sprouts with balsamic vinegar - Second attempt at brussels sprouts and everyone liked this version a lot more than the other.
egg & shrimp scramble - I was looking for new ways to serve some salad shrimp I got a deal on and all but one shrimp hater liked this dish. In fact, one shrimp hater loved it.
oriental shrimp salad - This is a rice-based salad that's super filling.
With that out of the way, here are the things we'll be eating for the rest of the month.
