first tag

I was recently tagged by a friend to write out my menu here on my blog. Well since last week we practically ate out every night due to garage sale stuff and other happenings, I will start this week but most of what I was going to fix last week has been moved to this week. I guess that will give me more money to spend on lunches and anything that I want to stock up on this week! My goal now is to spend no less more than $40 per week on groceries and it has been working out great! Here it goes:

Breakfast is usually peanut butter toast, cold cereal, banana, or yogurt.

Lunch usually consists of coldcut sandwiches, PB & Jelly, Mac and chesse, leftovers, and chips or crackers and some type of fruit that I have on hand, that may include fresh or canned.

Dinner is my main focus of planning, it is as follows:
Tacos and Mexican Rice
Cream of Chicken and Rice
Cheeseburger Pie
Eggs and Sausage
Breakfast Casserole
Chicken Enchiladas (I will make a double batch and take this to a friend who just had a baby)
We usually eat out one night, usually weekends so I only plan for six meals.

This week is a little heavy on the mexican and breakfast side since it is mainly what I have on hand. I also have a few freezer meals from a few months back when my sister-in-law and I made them and so one of those may be used as a substitution at any point throughout the week! We are definately blessed with much and need little!
