No Shopping Meal Plan

Okay, full disclosure, it's probably impossible for me to not shop at all in any given week.  I know I will need to replenish milk, I may need to buy some bread for school lunches, and I'm going to need a handful of items to pull this off.  But definitely not a full shopping/regular week.  Hopefully less than $25.00, which would be awesome.  Almost as important as the dollar savings however, is the fact that I need to use stuff up.  Do you do that??  I buy things, then for one reason or another they don't get used...maybe we were too busy, unexpected leftovers, just didn't sound good after all, etc., etc.  Then, next time, instead of using up, I buy different things and before you know it, we're overflowing.  I really need to cook from the freezer/fridge/pantry and use things up! 


Thursday:  Baked Potato Soup, apples, corn muffins  (There's leftover baked potato filling from when I made potato skins this week.  I've got some leftover bacon, sour cream and whole milk.  I may have to fudge a bit on amounts, but I *think* I can pull this together into a pretty good rendition of the soup.)

Friday:  Sloppy Joes, oven-fries or Tater Tots if there's enough in the bag, apples, carrots & celery

Saturday:  Pancakes for breakfast; out, someone else's treat, for lunch; potluck for dinner

Sunday lunch:  ??  Kids have an outing at church, not sure what Mark and I will do.
Sunday dinner:  Chicken finger wraps, pretzel sticks

Monday:  Salmon patties, buttered noodles, creamed peas

Tuesday:  Cashew/Peanut Chicken, Rice, Veggies

Wednesday:  Broccoli Cheese Soup (Broccoli leftover from Julianna's bday feast.), Oatmeal bread

Thursday:  Chicken Parmesan from freezer
