Menu Plan Monday - Week of 1/16/12


My goal is to menu plan every week with what I have in the fridge, freeze and pantry.  This leaves me to spend my grocery money on the best deals, instead of what I need to buy.

Monday:  Ham, baked potatoes, green salad, pineapple
  • Aldi had $6 off their Spiral Sliced hams when I was there on Sunday.  I picked up a 9.8 lb. ham for a little over $10.  The use or freeze by date is this coming Friday, so I'm planning several ham meals this week and will freeze the rest. 
Tuesday: Ham Fried Rice
  • I picked up Sun-Bird Fried Rice Seasoning Mix last week at Shop 'n Save for very little money.  I've never tried this brand, but am willing to give anything a try at least once.
Wednesday: Senate Bean SoupPioneer Woman's Skillet Cornbread
  • I put a ham bone in with the beans when I cook them.  At times, I think my family only eats ham because they know I'll make bean soup with the bone.  This soup is definitely a family favorite.
Thursday:  Spaghetti, garlic bread
  • I don't do anything special with my spaghetti.  A jar of Ragu or Barilla pasta sauce and add some cooked burger or sausage.
Friday:  Chicken Fajitas
  • Aldi also has multi-colored peppers on sale this week.  I have the rest of the makings for fajitas at home.  When peppers go on sale, fajitas are what  we eat.
Saturday:  Chicken Marsala with Linguine
Sunday:  Pork tenderloin, long grain & wild rice, frozen veggies, homemade applesauce
  • Yes, third week in a row this meal is on my menu plan.  Even with my best made plans,  almost every week, some meal just doesn't happen.    
What's for dinner at your house this week?
