This week's meal plan includes plenty of classic southern flavors! From tangy, glazed meatloaf to crispy deviled chicken - you'll find plenty to love here!
📅 Food Holidays
- April 13 is National Peach Cobbler Day. Try the easy dump cake below or this luscious bourbon peach cobbler.
- April 14 is National Pecan Day and I think any day is a good day for pecan pie!
- When you make the meatloaf consider doubling the recipe and freezing a couple unbaked. When ready to have them for dinner just thaw overnight in the refrigerator and pop in the oven about an hour before serving.
- The macaroni salad keeps for up to a week. Add some cooked chicken to the leftovers for a hearty (and delicious) main dish salad.
- If you have some of the ice cream left put a scoop on top of one of the warm brownies as an extra treat. It's also great with the chocolate chip cookies to make ice cream sandwiches.
- No time to roll the cabbage rolls? Chop up the cabbage and mix it all together for a delicious casserole!
