Eat at Home 3!

[TwoMisfits]

Still planning next week, but have the 1st few days...
Sunday - 3 Cheese and Spinach Stuffed Shells (Aldi's deal) in fresh tomato sauce with Beef Meatballs and Caesar Salad - low work for me so I can watch NFL playoffs
Monday - Chicken Fajitas, Fresh Diced Mango
Tuesday - 2nd Chicken Dinner - Mexican is popular here, so I may do Chicken Soft Tacos, Refried Beans, and Raspberries
Wednesday (or Thursday) - Thinking of making a large turkey breast or ham dinner to get it out of my freezer - whichever I choose will be the makings of both Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday dinner. I will make sides of mashed potatoes, mashed sweet potatoes, cranberry orange bread, stuffing, and some fruits/veggies (still to buy - ham would probably be fresh pineapple, clementines, beans, and turkey would be apples, spinach salad, berries) over these days, depending what the family picks (we'd do the meat the same twice, but change all the sides - 3rd dinner would be TBD based on how much meat is left and what sides are left, but some form of soup/stew likely)...
Saturday - Out

Okay, turkey breast was picked and preferred for early in the week, so Mon/Tues plans are Thurs/Fri plans and Mon-Wed look like this...
Mon - Roasted turkey breast, mashed potatoes, gravy, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce
Tues - Leftover turkey, mashed sweet potatoes, stuffing, raspberries, leftover gravy
Wed - Thanksgiving soup - turkey, turkey broth, and leftovers (with some sauteed onion and carrot) - should be pretty good...

I just read 30 pages of this thread and I am now starving.

I am trying to not eat out because I can cook so much cheaper. Plus it is gymnastics meet season and we have travel expenses.

Monday - we were at a meet.
Tuesday - I got apple, raisin, and almond stuffed chicken breast at kroger for $1.80 pp! The pack was like $3.50. I also made Cajun rice, and corn on the cob.
Wednesday - 10 bean Cajun soup and cornbread muffins
Thursday - Black bean dip, and taco salad on spinach
Friday - something gumbo or creole. I will have leftover black beans (I am crock potting them), half of a polish sausage in the freezer, frozen peppers, and shrimp. I will wing it.
Saturday - home made Alfredo and home made pasta. I am going to try to make pasta for the first time. Hubs hobby is bread making and we are overrun with flour. I will add either a cold spinach salad or cook it some way.
Sunday - I am trying to use up all our canned tomatoes (so I can pack away all my mason jars), frozen peppers, and fresh carrots so I will make crock pot spaghetti.
