Menu Plan February 1-15

We had a delicious spread for our Superbowl dinner, all homemade!  The cupcakes were from the freezer, as was the pizza crust, and the rest we did bit by bit over Saturday and Sunday, so it actually wasn't too hard.

Week 5 Challenge: Try 2 new whole foods.  We've tried a few new ones already.  First, along with our jalapeno poppers on Sunday, we had one Anaheim pepper.  That was good for the kids, who don't like spicy things, as it was more of a sweet pepper.  Last night we had a grapefruit after dinner.  Somehow I'd never tried one of those before.  I wasn't a fan, but Jonah and Hannah gobbled it up.

And finally, I attempted to make homemade yogurt using this recipe.  I think my temperatures were off, because by the time it was done, it was...basically milk.  Oh well.  I may try that again at some point.
