Freedom!
This is my first week since starting Menu Plan Monday that I have not had to plan meals around what is in my pantry or fridge. I am thankful, of course, for our free food and also for the stockpile we had in the pantry because it allowed me to cut $300 off our grocery bill last month. Now my pantry is empty and my fridge is bare, and I get to menu plan from scratch. The only problem… I have no idea what to make!
I’ll start with breakfast and lunch since they stay the same.
Breakfasts- pancakes, waffles, French toast, oatmeal, cold cereal
Lunches- sandwiches, muffins, fruit, veggies, cheese & crackers
Dinner-
Monday- Dinner out for the birthday boy
Tuesday- bow-tie pasta with asiago cream sauce, blackened scallops, salad, french bread
Wednesday- salisbury steak, egg noodles, corn, sweet potatoes
Thursday- Roast, mashed potatoes, green beans, whole wheat bread
Friday- homemade pizza with whole wheat crust
Saturday- shredded beef and bean burritos, rice
Sunday- Spaghetti, salad, French bread

Thanks for stopping by my blog during the blog party. I envy you, cutting money from your grocery bill. I should really look into that.

Thank you for the kind and encouraging words you posted on my blog. Earlier today, I was thinking, “Should I cut out Monday Meanderings?” Your post let me know that I should continue to post. Perhaps I will leave out my plans for the week, then I can just cut/paste whatever devotion the Lord places on my heart for that week.
