Weekly Menu 04.14.19
Our Weekly Menu 04.14.19 runs up to the Holiday Weekend!
It’s a little hard to believe that Easter is almost here, but the Weekly Menu 04.14.19 has a breakfast for dinner that proves it!
Growing up, we always colored eggs on Good Friday. Back in the day, my mother would cook up dozens and dozens of eggs. We used them for decorations, and the younger among us really liked decorating them. Eventually, though, the sheer quantity had to drop, and we were all ridiculously relieved.
The boys will help with only a few.
These days, we color about a dozen and a half hard boiled eggs, and go to town on the Deviled Eggs and Egg Salad, although neither are favorites of most of the men in my life.
What is a favorite, at least among the boys, is Pancake Good Friday Dinner. Another throw back to growing up, I make pancakes and serve them up to the boys sitting at the counter – they eat them as fast as I can make them. I use the Joy of Cooking recipe (affiliate link), which is super simple, but Bisquick is a viable and quick option as well. As an aside, if you only ever buy one cookbook, it should be Joy of Cooking. As a reference manual alone it is unsurpassed.
My mother ate her pancakes “German Style”. I don’t think that’s official or anything, but she was of German Heritage, and that’s what she called them: smear a fair amount of butter across the entire pancake and sprinkle copiously with sugar. Roll it up and enjoy. YUM.
The only way Pancake Friday could be better would be bacon and sausage. But… not on Good Friday.
