Monday Meals 3/21

I've found it's much easier to stay on budget when I have a PLAN for the week of what's for dinner. It makes things much less stressful when I come home- and if I have a plan I'm much less likely to take the easy way out and drive through for fast food on the way home.

Here's my plan for the week. Depending on super doubles at HT this may change! It's good to know that if the deals are not as good this time around, I've still got enough food for the week.

Monday: Shrimp & Grits
  • White Shrimp $4.99/lb at HT until 3/23
  • Quaker Instant Grits B1G1 (1.49) at HT until 3/23

Tuesday: Tofu Stir Fry- need to use leftover tofu from last week

  • Smoothies for dessert.
    • Yogurt from FL Private Brand sale, Bananas & Strawberries in the freezer from sales

Wednesday: Crock Pot Mexican Chicken

  • Chicken from B2G3 sale a while back
  • Most other items from Private Brand Sale at Food Lion

Thursday: Burgers & Hot Dogs w/ veggies
  • Burgers made from on sale beef a while back- in freezer
  • Hot dogs 1.29 @ FL until 3/23
  • Carrots & Broccoli w/ veggie dip

Friday: Leftovers


Saturday: Belated Birthday dinner w/ my brother :)
