Make a meal plan for the week? My friend ERIN over at Mommy Octopus
does and I've been trying this for a couple of weeks. It seems to work pretty well, keeps us from going out to eat a lot, which, of course, is a huge money saver! :)
I will probably start making the meal plan on Wednesdays or Thursdays. (The sales brochures come out on Wednesday). Here's what I came up with this week:
Monday:
Jambalya (Zatarains mix, just added andouille to it! YUMMO!)
Green Beans
Rolls
Tuesday:
Country Ham
Grits
Fresh tomatoes (just added salt and pepper!)
Wednesday:
Tilapia (Grilled with lemon pepper and olive oil)
Roasted potatos
Salad
Thursday:
Eye of Round (Baked at 300 for 2 hrs, comes out Med. Rare)
Turnips
Rolls
Friday:
Baked Chicken
Scalloped potatos (Betty Crocker box, got these at Publix cheap!)
(Since the kids are off for Good Friday, we plan on taking them to an awesome restaurant in Blakely, GA for lunch, so we might still be stuffed from that, but the chicken will be good to pick at for a dinner!)
Saturday:
Leftovers, chicken salad sandwiches (from any leftover chicken from Friday)
Sunday:
Beef tips with rice
yellow squash with onions (sauteed in butter,salt,pepper)
What do you have planned this week? Do you have any websites that you get your recipes from?
