Meal Plan Monday–21 October, 2013

Hey guys, welcome to a new week!  I have been so busy working on moving my website over from www.bunnycates.com to www.wearewordnerds.com that I really haven’t even thought about posting on this blog!  The move is done though, so now it is time to work out “kinks” and get myself on some type of posting schedule.  See, I even bought a date planner.  All official like. Bunnys New Planner

Hopefully, I can get onto a good posting schedule for this blog.  I am thinking Mon, Wed, and Fri… We’ll just have to see what happens. If there are any fun “weekly memes out there that you LOVE, let me know in the comments, please!   If you are into books and reading and all that, make sure you subscribe to www.wearewordnerds.com  That is my book site/blog.

As for this Monday, welp, how about my meal plan for the week.  I’m going to try to start getting my grocery shopping DONE on Sunday, that way I can include a “what it costs” section to my plan, but I feel like poop today so that isn’t going to happen this week.  I can tell you what I plan on cooking though!

Grocery list

Monday

Tuesday (Jesse is cooking)

Jesse

Jesse keeps telling me how amazing of a cook he is.  This week, I have decided to test that statement.  He is beaming at the thought of me trying his “home made mac-n-cheese” because he *hates* “the boxed stuff”.  Ok, Sir.  Here is your chance, wow me.

  • Pork Chops
  • Black eyed peas
  • Mashed Potatoes
  • Home made Mac-n-cheese
  • Rolls

Wednesday

Thursday *new recipe night!*

One of the *perks* of getting divorced….  Getting to try new recipes!  I found this one online, and am dying to try it!  I love penne and I love LOVE spinach, so…

Friday

  • Fend fo’ yo’self

Saturday

I have no idea what to cook this weekend.  We’ve been being so busy on the weekends lately, that even planning for Fri & Sat at all seems like a waste of time.  So I think this weekend, we’ll just be winging it and seeing what happens.

  • UNDECIDED (wing it)

Sunday

427_10151834869304467_1916593549_nBreakfast for dinner!

  • Biscuits

  • Sausage Gravy

  • Scrambled Eggs

  • Bacon

My grocery budget for this week is $180. I hope I can hit it because literally, that is all the money I have. LOL….  I am desperately trying to figure out how to get my weekly total DOWN, because my funds are so limited ATM.  So if you have any tips, please share them!

Thanks for reading, guys.

  2. That looks amazing! We honestly are lucky to eat that good once a month. LOL Lots of tv dinners, baked potatoes, and soup(get some when you want some) in this house. :D We also eat a lot of corn tortillas and sour cream "sandwiches". IDK Don't ask. LOL We do weird things. Also we commit hamburger helper abuse-having more than one box a week. Ha ha. But now I really need to cut the starches because of insulin resistance and for weightloss. So I need to replace rice and noodles with something else. So I started throwing blocks of cream cheese into hamburger and salsa and call every thing nachos. Am I doing it wrong? LOL! We have this thing here called carnitas, which is tiny bits of steak which stretches well veggies. So basically I think we each endless variations of nachos? LOL
