Menu Plan Monday

I received another financial blow this morning. Because of that I am going to have to tighten our belts even more when it comes to groceries!

Last week I went to the store and pretty much blew my entire budget on one week's worth of meals and two weeks worth of snacks. But with a house full of teenagers, and usually extras, the snacks are depleting faster than I had planned.

In conjunction with the Eat From The Pantry Challenge,


and due to the fact that I really just don't have much more money to spend on groceries, I have gone through our freezer and pantry and have come up with meals that will just get us through until the next pay period. I will also be making some homemade snacks to finish out the week.



Monday ~ Hot ham/turkey and cheese sandwiches and pasta salad

Tuesday ~ Lemon pepper chicken and rice

Wednesday ~ FFY

Thursday ~ Cheesy meatballs over pasta

Friday ~ Cheeseburger Macaroni Hamburger Helper

Saturday ~ Open faced turkey sandwiches (didn't get to this last week)

Sunday ~ Thick french toast and turkey bacon (didn't get to this last week)
