Just a heads up on the weekly menu to come...Oh and some fun DYI projects hopefully to be started tomorrow!
So usually every Thursday during Jaxon's nap time I sit down with pen, paper, coupons, and the new weekly flyers from our local grocery stores (the flyer for Publix comes out on Thursday and Winn Dixie comes out on Wednesday) and I take time to write down and plan out our weekly meals. By planning out the meals there are so many advantages and perks that keep me sane!
1) I can save money by planning meals around the sale items (meats, produce etc) for the week
2) Use some of my stockpile (more on that in another post)
3) I can keep myself from going crazy trying to figure out what's for dinner.
4) premake some meals when I have time and store them in the fridge!
So anyway this week there are lots of fruit on sale and I had tons of chicken and hamburger meat in the freezer that needs to be used. So this week I will be making some of my normal meals but also include some new ones to try out.
Tonight- burgers (turkey and beef) w mac n cheese and fruit salad
Sunday - our traditional Breakfast for dinner.. waffles and bacon!
Monday - Taco Salad, or as Alan says nachos.. This is a huge favorite in my house!
Tuesday - Meatloaf, mashed potatoes and green beans... I will def blog this one! So good! I will also be halfing this recipe and giving a tutorial on downsizing recipes.. can be a little difficult sometimes
Wednesday - Chicken Divan casserole.. this is new to us but looked so good
Thursday- BBQ ribs in the crock pot.. this is a favorite of mine.. w rice and corn on the cob
Friday- cheesy chicken italian... we need to use up some pasta.. this will do it!
So keep up with the blog this week (and maybe tonight to show you the best turkey burger ever!)
And some awesome DIY things to come.. A recycled herb bench.. and a menu board for FREE out of scrap lumbar and some left over paint!
