I am SO not ready for the holiday season...I know retailers are trying to get a jump on holiday spending, but sheesh folks, can you at least let the turkey get cold first??? :)
We did *moderately* well sticking to the menu plan last week - I haven't been fantastic with night-before prep so we had to switch a few meals around, and one night I had to pull out a freezer meal instead of cooking because we ran really late getting home. But that's the nice thing about menu plans, it's a PLAN, not a law :)
This week my husband is home more nights than usual but we've got a lot of running around to do so I'm working off a lot of crockpot and freezer meals. I was going to try jumping back on the OAMC bandwagon this month, but I think it'll just have to wait till after the holiday madness has passed.
Here's what's on our table, and pay a visit to Laura over at I'm an Organizing Junkie for hundreds more menus and recipes!
monday - Homemade pizza, sliced veggies ($3.97 for 6-8 servings)
tuesday - Obama's Chili, homemade cornbread ($8.40 for 8-10 servings)
wednesday - Corndog Muffins, mixed veggie ($2.00 for 4 servings plus extra for the freezer!)
thursday - Italian Chicken Skillet ($4.35 for 6 servings)
friday - Pineapple Pork Roast, mashed sweet potatoes, veggie ($6.75 for 6 servings)
saturday - Breakfast for dinner! Pancakes and scrambled eggs with fruit ($3.39 for 4 servings)
sunday - Dinner at the in-law's (free!)
Stumble It!
