week#12

okay, I know I am a day late but dh is home sick and that changes my routine. Here is what on the menu this week:

Breakfasts:

cold cereal, oatmeal, toast with peanut butter or eggs and toast


Lunches:

leftovers or sandwiches


Dinners:

grilled cheese and soup
meatloaf, mashed potatoes and veggie
spaghetti with meatballs
tacos
slow cooker salsa chicken ( new recipe for us)
date night
homemade pizza


Snacks:

popcorn, pretzels, pumpkin bread


As you notice we eat that same sorts of meals each week. I seem to be in a rut. I will try to add a new recipe the next couple of weeks to see if I can't get some variety into our diet.

Week #11

I just didn't get around to meal planning this week. I wasn't feeling well and we just kinda made do and spent to much money on take out. Already working on next weeks plan. I have $10 of my food money left. This next week will be a pantry week. Hopefully I will not need much to make it work.

Breakfast:

cold cereal, eggs and toast, waffles


Lunch:

leftovers, sandwiches


Dinners:

hot dogs and mac salad
whole chicken (in the crockpot), stuffing and veggie
chicken stir-fry (leftover chicken from above)

Snacks:

popcorn, fruit, pretzels


Recipes I want to try:

-chewy granola bars
