Easter Dinner with my Mommy

My menu plan is a little different this week. Usually, I plan my meals based on what we already have on hand. Things may change slightly depending on what fresh fruits and veggies are on sale Wednesday, but we typically eat from the stockpile. Today I’m heading out to Harris Teeter to spoil my hubby and get BOGO London Broil for tonight. This is more expensive than a typical meal but the meat will feed us for 2 dinners. Also, I’m trying Corned Beef and Cabbage for St. Patrick’s Day Wednesday. I’ll be picking that up at HT as well.

Monday
London Broil (in crock pot) with sautéed mushrooms, asparagus and potatoes from freezer.

Tuesday
English Muffin Pizzas

Wednesday
Corned Beef with cabbage and Potatoes in crock pot (probably freezer leftovers)

Thursday
London Broil with homemade mac and cheese and corn

Friday
Roasted Turkey w/ mashed potatoes from freezer and green beans

Saturday
Baked Ziti (with leftover turkey) and rolls (make 2, freeze 1)

Sunday
Turkey Taco’s with black beans from freezer

I bought a 12lb turkey a while ago for $5.67. It will yield at least 6 meals, under $1 a meal!!!

I didn’t do a menu plan last week and boy did I pay for it!  Luckily I had some freezer meals prepared but it was a lot more stressful and we ordered pizza 1 night and had (ugh) fast food another. 

Give menu planning a try if you’ve never done it or start planning again if you’ve gotten out of the habit.  You can plan breakfast, lunch and dinner or just dinner; whatever works for you!

Here’s our dinner plans for the week:

Monday:
Gone

Tuesday:
Turkey Soup from Freezer with Sandwiches

Wednesday:
Crock Pot Chicken with Freezer Red Potatoes and Green Beans

Thursday:
Chicken Tacos (using crock pot chicken), Freezer Pinto Beans and Mexican Rice

Friday:
Chicken Pot Pie (using crock pot chicken)-Make 2, Freeze 1

Saturday:
Pronto Pasta and Sausage Skillet with Rolls (Pampered Chef receipt-will post if good)

Sunday:
Meatloaf with Freezer Mashed Potatoes and Corn

I may substitute chicken, broccoli, rice casserole 1 night if broccoli is a good price when sales come out tomorrow.
