Menu - January 21-27
We are contining to thin down our pantry and freezer stock a bit, so we've limited the grocery budget to $20 a week. It's been going great, and we've not really seen any change in our meals. Here's our plan for this week!
We don't generally have a 'focus food', but there have been some really good sales on yogurt lately, and I've gotten rather a lot, at least for us....so you'll see it featured some, hee hee.
Breakfasts, some of which will repeat:
cereal, milk, fruit
yogurt, frozen blueberries, homemade granola
flaxseed muffins, fresh fruit
fruit and yogurt smoothies w/protein powder
eggs, toast, fresh fruit
Lunch Options:
leftovers from suppers when available
yogurt, fresh fruit, granola
cheese and crackers, apples
green salad with fruit, pecans, cheddar
Snack Choices:
yogurt with granola
popcorn
peanut butter & celery
pecans and dried fruit
flaxseed muffins
Supper:
green salad with smoked turkey, toasted pecans, mandarin oranges, celery, carrots, cilantro, crispy noodles and Asian dressing....and brownies
sliced ham, macaroni and cheese, green beans, apples
hamburgers on buns, tomato soup, fruit salad
cheese enchiladas with red sauce, refried beans, shredded lettuce salad, oranges
barebecue chicken pizza, carrot and raisin salad, apples
potato corn chowder, crackers & cheese, fresh fruit
tongkatsu chicken, rice, kimchee, stir fried cabbage/carrots, pineapple
Grocery List: We may need a gallon of milk at some point and we'll purchase fresh produce that's on sale, but at this point, we have everything on hand that we need for all the meals listed. I think that's kind of YAY!!

This is the recipe I used:

My daughter and husband both say they are bland. I don't find them to be bland, exactly, but I'd put in a half tsp. of salt, I think, to balance the flavors. They are rather rustic in texture....and the recipe makes a lot (I ended up with twenty - yike!)
