I have recently started to plan out the meals for a week, before I go to the grocery store. I have found this very helpful for having delicious dinners and it can also cut down on how much money I spend at the store...if I stick to the list. We have also cut down on how many snacks we buy. Those snack items are often unnecessary, and they really rack up the bill. The less snack items we buy...the yummier dinners we can have. You know I can spend a little more on meat cuts and cheese and it doesn't hurt the budget so much.So here are this weeks dinner plans:
Enchilada Casserole
Chicken and Homemade Mac and Cheese
Beef Stew/Soup
Homemade Pizza
Lasagna
Meatloaf and Au Gratin Potatoes
Homemade Chili in the crock pot
I am a huge fan of recipes that go in the crock pot. It smells so good cooking all day and it cooks while I do school. I'd love to hear what dinners you are cooking this week.
I love the slow cooker too! It'd be great if you end up sharing your recipes. I tried clicking them to see if you had a recipe connected ;)
ReplyDeleteI like adding to our cooking and bakeware collection too. It really helps expand what you can do.
Tracy,
ReplyDeleteI will try to post some of them next time. I did make the Enchilada Casserole... and all I can say is YUM! Here is a link to it.

It was very very good. I did not follow the recipe exactly...I didn't make use the fat free sodium free stuff and I messed with the measurements a bit.
Anyways thanks for the suggestion...I will try to post some more recipes next week.
Thanks for this link! I went to it and it looks so delicious! I love casseroles.
