Another week has come and gone and it’s time for a new menu plan.  I can’t believe we’re starting a new month this week!  Where is this year going to?  I’ve got a couple of new recipes to try this week.  Hopefully, they will go over well.

  • Sandwiches
  • Leftovers

Dinner:

  • Sunday ended up being a free for all (everyone just helped themselves)
  • Country Chicken Casserole  (new)
  • Italian Supper Casserole (new)
  • Spaghetti with tossed salad & homemade garlic bread

Menu Plan: 05/16 – 05/22

OK – last week ended up being a bust where my menu plan was concerned, and today we ended up stopping and picking up fried chicken for lunch/dinner.   Not frugal, I know.   This week, I am determined that we stay on track.  I’ve also broke out some of my favorite cookbooks to try and change up our menu.  We tend to get into a rut during the colder months, and it’s way past time that we get back out of that rut and try some new things.  But, I am going to try to find recipes that are quick and easy as well as using ingredients that I already have on hand.  No stopping at the store midweek unless absolutely necessary.   As we try these new recipes, I will post them along with our review of them. 

 

Breakfast:

  • Amish Baked Oatmeal
  • Chocolate Cream Crepes (recipe coming soon!) or Crepes with various fillings
  • Granola bars
  • eggs, bacon, & toast

Lunch:

  • Sandwiches
  • Leftovers

Dinner:

  • Crock Pot Roast with veggies
  • Italian Supper Casserole
  • Hamburger Stroganoff
  • Johnny Marzetti
  • 6-Layer Country Casserole
  • Leftovers x 2

I planned leftovers twice since I’m sure we’ll have quite a few this week.  Don’t forget to check out Organizing Junkie for more great menu plans this week!

Menu Plan: 05/09 – 05/15

 

mpm-1

I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother’s day!  It’s another Monday here, except for the fact that were going to Dollywood on a school field trip today so that’s almost like having an extra weekend day!  The good thing is we already have our season passes so the only spending for us will be for gas and some food.   

Menu plan for the week will mainly be out of the pantry again this week. 

Breakfast:

Lunch:

  • Sandwiches
  • Leftovers

Dinner:

  • Spaghetti with sauce
  • Meal @ Dollywood but eating sandwiches on the way home
  • Grilled chicken with potatoes(maybe baked?) and another veggie (maybe broccoli?)
  • Spicy pork chops on the grill with a couple of veggies
  • Tacos with assortment of toppings
  • Homemade pizza
  • Leftovers

Not an overall exciting week menu-wise but I’m trying to use a lot of what I already have on hand to help keep out budget under control.
