Monday Meals: A Retrospective

Like we mentioned in our Football Friday post; we've officially been blogging for 3 years now, and have close to 300 posts! While we conduct plenty of taste tests and research every week to find new recipes, sometimes it's fun to look back at some of our tried and true favorite recipes. We thought we'd re-post some of our favorite Monday Meals recipes!

Our first Monday Meals recipe was Stuffed Peppers, which we continue to make in various forms. We love making stuffed peppers, because it's an easy way to clean out the refrigerator, and get some vegetables in your kids diet.

MANLY Meatloaf was one of our more popular blogs. Meatloaf smothered in a sweet and savory bourbon sugar glaze hit all the tastebuds. And it's scientific proof that adding bourbon to anything automatically makes it 200% more manly. #science

Balsamic Pork Roast still gets a lot of play in the Wisconsin Test Kitchen. It's our go-to recipe whenever we have a pork roast in the freezer. It's one of those amazing recipes that tastes like you put a lot of time and effort into it, when in actuality- all you did was throw a bunch of ingredients in the crock pot. 

Roast Beef Sandwiches are a great quick dinner option. They're hearty, filling and easy to prepare. And they're really excellent paired with Broccoli Soup. 

Indian Butter Chicken was a surprising blog post... we weren't sure how many of our readers were going to be interested in Indian cuisine, but WOW! To this day, it continues to be our most popular blog post. We heard feedback from so many readers about how their picky kids loved this meal. And at the end of the day: that's what Cool Dads Cook is all about- introducing new and fresh recipes that anyone can prepare into your kitchen. 

We hope you've enjoyed this little trip down memory lane, and we're back in the test kitchens this week working on new recipes.

Stay Cool,
The Cool Dads Crew
