In an attempt to support my last post of spending less each week on groceries, especially from WM I am creating my weekly menu from things I already have in the house. I do need to shop this week for fruit and milk but I want to use what I have before I buy more.
Sunday - Lunch - Beef Veggie soup, grilled cheese, Supper - pancakes. My family doesn't know it yet but I am going to slowly try to get them to eat pancakes with applesauce instead of syrup. I had one taker tonight and he loved it! Too much high fructose corn syrup!
Monday - We have a viewing to go to at suppertime and I am also babysitting all day for two other children so it will have to be leftovers tonight!
Tuesday - Beef Enchiladas (I already have all of these ingr. in the freezer and pantry!)
Wednesday - Homemade hot pockets and chimi's - Also from the freezer. It's time to use up all that good freezer cooking and have a cooking day to stock up again.
Thursday - Scrambled eggs and pork links
Friday - Steak, corn, potatoes and green veggie
Saturday - Leftover or freezer food again.
I know it will feel good to empty things out and start fresh again. I hope to also bake bread a couple of times this week as well as something for snacks, maybe granola bars. For more menu plan ideas check out orgjunkie.com

Hi Patty! It's fun to know we are both doing the same thing at the same time (posting our links on MPM), even though we live so far away. Your menu sounds wonderful. I am mostly planning from food in our pantry & freezer as well.
