Wow, it has been a very long time since I posted a planned menu! I have been menu planning, just not getting around to posting it.
I decided to increase our grocery budget, I actually doubled it. It was too small & then with the prices going up, something HAD to be done. Not to mention the fact that we eat out about once a week (weither for lunch or dinner).
Before I post, can I share some good news? I am eating better throughout the day. Not craving as much fast food & junk. Although chocolate is still a fave, I go for two pieces of dark chocolate (rich in antioxidants) rather than endless amounts of cookies & candy bars. lol. Yaye!
Okay so here is my menu for this week:
Monday: Chicken Paninis with broccoli cheese soup
Tuesday: Steak, baked potatoes, & green beans
Wednesday: Minestrone (we can't get enough!)
Thursday: Spaghetti w/mixed green salad & garlic bread (ohhh I can't resist)
Friday: Salisbury Steak, mashed potatoes, corn (Corey's fav)
Saturday: Fettucine Alfredo with Broccoli
Sunday: Chicken Ceasar Salad

You're ridic. I can't believe you can eat that well. You have some amazing willpower!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I've been menu planning as well. $200 for 3 weeks of groceries. Shut the front door.
Chicken paninis? Do tell!
