Mish-Mash Dinner

Tonight was mish-mash night. I forgot to thaw something out so we just kind of scrounged.

I had 4 spincach and cheese savorings....maybe $1.00. ??

Dh had 2 frozen egg rolss $1.28

Little Man had ramen noodles (only half the powder though) and some peaches. 10¢ for the noodles and maybe 40¢ for the peaches. He eats like a bird.

Aren't you jealous of our wonderful, nutritious meal?!?!

$2.78 total.

Monday's Dinner

Tonight's dinner is French Dip Subs. I can't find my receipt from Aldi's where I get the frozen french dip meat but I know it was less than $3. SO:

French Dip Meat: $2.99
Slices of Swiss cheese: 25¢
Sandwich Rolls 50¢

Total: $3.74

We still have some leftover cooked veggies from pot roast I can pair with it.

Weekend Dining

Last night we went to Mr. Gatti's with our friends and there 2 kids. I can't eat pasta or lettuce so that rule out a lot of what I could eat. O wouldn't touch any of it. So basically we paid $30 for dh and dsd to eat. LOL Probably why we rarely go there. I'm not counting eat out in our total though.

Tonight we are clearing out the leftovers from the fridge. There is enough to feed us all. So I'm putting zero $$$ down for another meal.

Friday night Dinner

We are having pot roast tonight. It smells so yummy right now. I got a good deal on the roast...half price! Wish I could find more sales like that.

Pot Roast $3.50
Carrots 50¢
Potatos $1.73
Seasoning and Bag $1.76

Total =$$7.49 for 4 people.

And I'm sure we will have leftovers! :)

Jan. 1st~Happy New Years!

Here's hoping 2009 is better economically that 2008!!

Tonights dinner is a fast and easy one.

Smoked Sause ($2.50) with grilled peppers ($1)and onion (50¢).

Total: $4 for 3 of us.

I went ahead and worked out my menu plan through Jan. 11th so I should be good at cooking vs. eating out for a while! :)

Only a few more weeks

til Christmas and then the NEW YEAR!

I love the new year...and the fresh new start of everything. I'm ready to re-evaluate our budget, clean out the stash of paperwork, and try to find a new system that works for me.
