Menu Plan Monday!!!

Photobucket

Ah, yes. It's that time of the week again. Another week has gone by and it's monday now...time to lan my menu for the week. Honestly it was semi planned last week because I go grochery shopping every 15 days (when hubby gets paid). So i always have a general idea of what im going to be making the 1st-15th and the 15th-30th(31st) of every month. Its just on Mondays I plan it all out so I can just look at my little calander and take out what I need. It makes life so much more simple. Ok enough rambeling, on with MPM!

MONDAY: Meatloaf, Lima Beans, Mashed Potatoes

TUESDAY: Left over Meatloaf, Carrots, Cornbread, Stovetop

WEDNESDAY: Kabobs and Brown Rice (looking foward to hump day!!)

THURSDAY: StoveTop Chicken

FRIDAY: Leftovers

SATURDAY: Spaghetti with butter and garlic (we dont do tomato sauce)

SUNDAY: Chicken Enchiladas and Mexican Rice

Still eating lots of left overs since hubby is gone until Mid/End of November....no big deal. It saves us some money on our grochery bill. =) Can you believe I only spent $100.17 on grocheries for 15 days?!?!?! Thats not just dinner...thats breakfast lunch snacks and dinner...and no coupons! I suck at using coupons....but I'm good at finding deals and only buying what I need. This mornings breakfast is Waffles with strawberries and whippedcream.....omg so good!! I think I might make some more and freeze them for an easy breakfast later this week. Its a nice change from ceral and milk or eggs biscuit and fruit salad.

Nice menu. Great job saving money. I love making extra waffles and pancakes and putting them in the freezer. They come in handy!!

I'm putting my husband on a grocery budget. He's always asking to eat out or buy ice cream from the local ice cream place.
Well, after the Oprah frugal special I decided to put my family on a budget.
We'll see how it goes.
