We all knew this one was coming didn’t we? Have we ever done a Once A Month Mom menu without chicken on it? I don’t think so! Chicken is a major staple in our diets, so you should be seeing it on menus for a long time to come.

This is the first of the Sliced & Diced series. Today I am talking onions. What sizes are there, how many cups are yielded from a particular size, and how many cups is that once they are cooked?

Creating monthly menus can be a bit of a challenge.It is possible though. Today I want to introduce you to a new series that will help us to be more consistent in our measurements when cooking bulk items like vegetables, meats, rice, pasta, etc.
