Menu Monday & Groceries

For the past few weeks, things have been too busy to properly grocery shop. I’ve gone to the store to pick up the essentials, but haven’t had the time to score any deals. I was so excited to have today off so I could take advantage of the deals going on at my local store.

All this for only $48.87

All this for only $48.87

The reason the price was even that high is that I bought a package of steaks for dinner with friends this week that cost $18.

The pasta, Splenda, shredded cheese & frozen veggies were part of a deal that gives you $3 off a future purchase when you spend $10. I bought those first and got four $3 coupons that I used in a second transaction for the rest of the groceries. That way I don’t have to worry about using them before they expire. Or losing them. Or bringing them to the wrong store. When you have a lousy memory like I do, these things can happen

Onto the week’s menu!

Monday: Apple Bacon Tomato Soup (didn’t make this last week & it was yummy!)

Tuesday: Shrimp & Broccoli Alfredo

Wednesday: Peppercorn Bleu Cheese Steak & Smashed Potatoes

Thursday: Sausage & Pepper Pizza

Friday: Cory - leftovers, Me - Dinner @ my sister’s

Saturday: Cory - Chicken Stir Fry, Me - Dinner out

Sunday: Pumpkin Sausage Pasta

    It turned out REALLY good. My husband was a little skeptical but the combo of sweet and salty was tasty.
