Wednesday: mac & cheese, green salad
Thursday: Chicken a la creme, rice, baby vegetables
Friday: scrounge day
Saturday: pasta dish or pizza
Sunday: Sticky chicken, baked potatoes, mixed veggies
Update with recipe: The recipe for sticky chicken has been requested, so I thought I'd just post it for everyone. It's a recipe I got from the lovely Laurel at Laurel Wreath's Reflections.
STICKY CHICKEN
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon paprika
3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 whole roasting chicken, about 3 pounds
1 cup chopped onions
Combine all spices (first 8 ingredients) in small bowl.
Rinse chicken, inside and out. Drain well.Rub spice mixture over skin and the inside of chicken.Place in a resealable plastic bag, seal and refrigerate overnight.
When ready to roast, stuff cavity with onions.Place chicken breast side down in roasting pan.Roast uncovered at 250ºF (that's not a typo...it's really 250º! Anything over 225º is safe as long as the chicken reaches an internal temperature of at least 155º, which this does, and more) for about 5 hours. Baste occasionally with pan juices or until pan juices start to caramelize on bottom of pan and chicken is golden brown.

Sticky Chicken sounds great. I can imagine it smells heavenly while it is roasting!
Here's praying this week is a MUCH calmer week for you so you can recharge the batteries!
I haven't done a menu in a few weeks but feel like I need to! But hubby's work schedule has just been too crazy for planning. I've heard of sticky chicken for years and how good it is but I've never tried it!
I need to get back to posting my menu plan. I do one...I have to. Your sticky chicken sounds alot like my Candy Chicken.....I think mine is sweeter though. I hope your days are much better this week. I know you had a tough time. Hoping spring time comes fast for us all.
