Family On A Budget

Oh this week is going to be busy, so it best that start back to planning.

Monday: Ravioli with spaghetti sauce, salad and garlic bread.

Tuesday: Daughter is playing in State soccer playoffs so dinner will be out at a restaurant near the field (good wishes are welcome! – LOL)

Wednesday: Turkey Meat Loaf, mashed potatoes, corn.

Thursday: Turkey Tacos with the left over Turkey Meat Loaf. Black beans and spanish rice.

Friday: Baked fish, tater tots, green beans.

Saturday: Country Ribs baked in the oven, boiled baby potatoes with chives and butter, BBQ beans. We are going to a big college football game and needs lots of filling food to absorb the beer.

Sunday: Steaks on the grill, either baked potatoes or fettuccine with Alfredo sauce, home canned Harvard beets.

Some of the items are from last week that didn’t make it to the table as planned. My refrigerator is stocked with lots of fresh veggies and fruits as I found a new inexpensive organic market that had great prices and really fresh items. I am looking forward to eating well this week.

Monday – Chicken Fajitas with red and yellow peppers and onions, Spicy Spanish Quinoa (will try and post the recipe).

Tuesday – Homemade ricotta stuffed shells (fresh ricotta and fresh mozzarella) with salad and homemade bread (bread machine). Using fresh cheese is more expensive but my daughter is home on Spring Break and she deserves a treat.

Wednesday – Navy Bean Soup and salad. – always a budget friendly dinner and a favorite of my husband and daughters.

Thursday - Pork and sauerkraut with turkey kielbasa and fat free hot dogs. (brought over from last week).

Friday – Fish Fry Day. We will visit one of our local churches/fire halls. I always try and get baked fish and many more are serving this each year.

Saturday – Homemade pepperoni pizza, salad and baked chicken wings.
