So what will I make?

When you see receipts like mine or if you are behind someone like me in line do you wonder what the hay they are going to feed their families? I didn't buy meat or much produce, no milk here... Milk is cheaper with the coupon from T.G. Lee at CVS, stocked up on meat at several sales and Sams Club, and have LOTS of produce from last week's sale. I will have to go to Aldi for a few things, but should only spend maybe $5-$10 more on this week...seriously, how can you beat spending $20 or less on a week's worth of groceries?

So for the menu with all of this...provided our household gets well quickly...otherwise, it will be lots of soups and homemade breads again next week.

Saturday: Homemade pizza...we make the dough in our bread machine. A white pizza with garlic and broccoli for T and I and pepperoni pizza for the girls.
Strawberry shortcake for dessert. (I LOVE strawberry season).

Sunday: Homemade beef stew with rice

Monday: Red beans with ham bone, served over brown rice and homemade cheddar garlic biscuits

Tuesday: Chicken burritos with leftover red beans

Wednesday: Hamburgers on the grill, salad, baked fries

Thursday: corn flake pork chops, rice pilaf, mixed fresh veggies

Tuesday
