Well week one shopping and meal planning is done. Did I do it? Almost! I spent $78.03, so I was over budget by $18.00 that said all of the meat that I bought was in an Extreme Value pack so I am pretty sure that I have enough meat for two full weeks of meals. I also just started clipping coupons so I didn't have very many to use. I am pretty surprised I was able to accomplish it!!!
Here is my meal plan for the week:
Day one: Garlic Pork Chops with Homemade Mashed potatoes and steamed Broccoli
Day two: Beef Roast with Potatoes and Butternut Squash
Day three: Beef tacos with rice and beans
Day four: Cowboy Pie with Broccoli
Day five: Baked Ziti with homemade sauce and Spaghetti squash
Day six: Slow cooker Chicken fajitas
Day seven: Spaghetti squash and Chicken bake
Breakfast:
Oatmeal, eggs & toast, French toast, Eggs burritos, Pancakes and cereal
Lunch:
Sandwiches (turkey, PB&J, grilled cheese) fruit, baby carrots, mac & cheese a couple of days (this menu is much more relaxed)
