Feeding the Team! Pasta and more!
I almost forgot to report back!
A couple of weeks ago I mentioned that I was preparing to host our oldest son's basketball team for their weekly pasta dinner! I wanted to make sure that I would NOT run out of food for these hungry boys...twelve sophomore players! :)
Thankfully, I didn't run out and we had LOTS of leftovers that I was able to divide and freeze for plenty of meals for our family too! Yay!
I wanted to let you know what I did, and some suggestions for the next time we host the team.
First of all, the team typically arrives directly from practice, but this day their practice finished early...since I really wanted my husband's help with the dinner, the boys had an hour between practice and the dinner...and some of them ATE a little AT HOME before they came...I can't blame them, but I know it cut down on what they consumed at my house! :)
So, this is what I prepared:
**Triple recipe of Make-Ahead Unstuffed Pasta Shells
**Triple recipe of Chicken Alfredo Bake (using this recipe as a guide)
**Huge bowl of Romaine lettuce (only used 2 out of 3 "stalks" from a 3 pack)
**3 loaves of Garlic Bread (store-bought)
**2 loaves of homemade French bread
**9x13 pan of Rice Krispie bars
**Milk
**Water
**Gatorade
They ate a LOT of food, but I think the next time I host, I would be able to get by with a double recipe of each main dish (or at least cut down on one of them, to make a total of 5 recipes).
They didn't eat all of the bread...some preferred the French bread to the Garlic bread. (Making the French bread was a last minute idea...I did that because I had some time. Three loaves total, would have been enough.)
It was a LOT of fun! We were able to fit all of them in our dining room. We added a small table to the end, so they could all sit as a group.
They were so polite and kind...wonderful young men! It was fun to see how they truly enjoyed their time together.
Here are some more specifics on how I made the Chicken Alfredo Bake:
*2-16 oz. boxes of rotini
*28 oz. bag of frozen chicken breasts, cooked and cubed
*2 cups milk
*2-15 oz. jars alfredo sauce
*1 tsp. minced garlic
*1 1/3 c. mozzarella cheese
*4 T. parmesan
Prepare pasta as directed. Bake chicken, and cut into cubes. Mix milk with alfredo sauce. Mix in parmesan and garlic with the sauce. Pour over pasta and mix well. Add cubed chicken and mix into pasta. Pour into a deep 9x13 pan. (I bought a disposable deep 9x13 lasagna pan). Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top. Bake at 400*F for 25 - 30 minutes, until heated through.
(I divided the ingredients in half, and made another pan of it, as well)
Now I have it documented...for the next time! :)
How about you? Any advice for "feeding the team"?

Back to "normal"....
After feeling "not my normal self" for WAY too long now, I am excited that I am getting healthier every day!
The week before Christmas, I was struck down by the horrible flu virus!!! 3 days of fever, headache, congestion and no energy....moms aren't supposed to get stuff like this!!! :( Then, just as I thought I was getting better, it turned into a sinus infection...yuck!
Anyway, today is the last day of my antibiotics, and I am so thankful to be feeling SO MUCH BETTER!!!
So, on with life!!!
This week we have the pleasure of hosting the pasta dinner for our oldest son's basketball team. (Each family takes turns serving a huge pasta meal to the team, the night before a game).
I am planning just how much food I need to make for thirteen 15 - 16 year old boys!!! Did I mention they come to our house straight from practice?? They will be starving!!!!!!!!
I am looking forward to it, and I will share with my readers after the dinner takes place. I will tell you what I fixed, and hopefully, that I had plenty of food!
So, stay tuned..... Pin It

*Hypoallergenic
*Won't harm the flame resistance of sleepwear
I gave it a try and it works great!

Happy 2013 and a few links for you!
Happy New Year!
We've had a nice break from our regular routine at our house, but (unfortunately) I guess it's time to get back to reality! LOL!
My two oldest were out the door bright and early...back to school already! :(
My youngest (whom I still homeschool) is still sleeping, and I have no plans of waking him up! :)
I thought I would pass along a couple of helpful links for the New Year:
FREE printable calendars (and much more) at Donna Young's site. I currently use these blank calendars in my financial notebook to keep track of bill paying.
Spark People is another FREE site to use for keeping track of losing weight, and exercise...there are recipes to use, calorie counters, and personalizing a plan for you. I found this very helpful when I wanted to lose 10 - 15 pounds a few years back.
...and with a new year (and new month) there are some great printable coupons to take advantage of:
Those are just a few that are available...click on any coupon above, and you can scroll through all available coupons! (First time printing coupons? Read here.) Happy saving with coupons! Pin It
