Meal Plan Monday....Sept. 21st Edition....Using up Stuff

Last Week's Menu Post Mortum......

Instead of buying Kielbasa, I had Italian Sausages Links in the freezer so we had those.  Polished off some more leftovers so we didn't have the Turkey Sloppy Joes or the homemade Corn Chowder.  Both will rollover into this week's menu.
I still have a fair amount of bread products from the Entenmann's Outlet buy on 9/13, so I'll be incorporating those to use it up.

Here's what I will be serving our family of 4 this Week...

MONDAY--Spaghetti & Meatballs(homemade meatballs), Salad
TUESDAY--Turkey Sloppy Joe's on Rolls(freezer/stockpile/pantry),fresh local Corn on the Cob
WEDNESDAY--Alfredo Noodles(stockpile)w/Chicken(freezer),Swiss Chard(garden)
THURSDAY--English Muffin Pizzas(use some bread up), Salad
FRIDAY--Macaroni & Cheese(homemade), steamed Broccoli
SATURDAY--Tuna fish Sub Sandwiches, homemade Clam & Corn Chowder
SUNDAY--Steak on the Grill, Squash Casserole(garden), HashBrowns on the Grill(homemade)
Dessert--Zucchini Bread(garden), Seasonal Fresh Fruit


Last week I spent $21.20 on food & pet food. 
This week's shopping list is light again..fresh corn, broccoli, salad greens, apples, milk, lunchmeat/cheese.  Maybe some more fruit. I'll probably spend more than last week since I'll be stocking up on a couple of items this week.

Food Waste Report....I ended up feeding some leftovers to the dogs.  I did have to throw out a piece of cheese this week that turned the corner to mostly mold.  Not happy about that but I wasn't about to eat it.lol
