Menu Plan Monday - June 23rd




Last week's Amish Baked oatmeal was definitely a sweet treat, maybe a little too sweet even for me, the ultimate sweet tooth. In looking for an alternative, I came across this recipe for Chewy Oatmeal spice bars. The spice bars made for great breakfast bars and snacks. But if anyone has a recipe for baked oatmeal that's not too sweet, please share!


Here's this week menu. Harris Teeter has a great meat sale going on thru Tuesday. Got a london broil regularly priced $13.67 for $5.45! Yesterday was my first time cooking one and it turned out great! Went back and bought another one that's tucked nicely away in the freezer.


Breakfast & Lunch: Items already on hand.


Dinner:


Saturday - Creamed tuna w/homemade white sauce over whole wheat penne & steamed sweet peas


Sunday - London Broil marinated in teriyaki w/brown rice & steamed veggies


Monday - Sunday leftovers


Tuesday - Whole Wheat pasta w/marinara sauce & homemade breadsticks


Wednesday - Dirty Rice (using ground pork sausage)




Friday - Homemade pizza (using this Easy Pizza Dough recipe)


Grocery Total - Total spent: $93.67

Have a great week everyone!

You are definitely a planner! I can barely think of a menu for one meal ahead, much less several. I am going to try my hand at planning a little further ahead - - like maybe a whole day or something! ;-)

LOL Rebecca! Meal planning is definitely a sanity saver for me.
