Meal Planning

Do you meal plan? I have been trying to do a better job at it.  I did pretty good 2 weeks ago ... made a few chances according to what I could find at the store ... chicken & noodles instead of beef & noodles because who wants to eat beef fat & noodles??  Then last week went kind of kooky .... I had planned for my husband to be gone Thurs - Sun due to National Guard drill ~ but the government decided to shutdown and as a result ~ drill was canceled ... never mind that the hubby is NOW LAID OFF until further notice. sigh

Anyway ~ when I went to plan out meals for this week ... I decided to bear down and really look at what we have in the freezer and pantry ... using what we have ~ hoping for a smaller grocery bill this week.

So here it goes ...

I found a roast in the freezer (SCORE!!) ... It's going to do double duty this week!! 

Monday ~ Roast Beef sammies with onions & peppers

Tues ~ Veggie soup

Wed ~ Fish, fries & green beans

Thursday ~ Leftovers

Friday ~ Homemade Pizza

Sat ~ My birthday ~ so we'll see how it goes :)

Sun ~ Supper at mom & dad's


I am just getting the hang of this meal planning ~ so I just do one week at a time ...

What is on your menu this week??
