I am trying to plan a menu to help with my shopping to help save money. Starting with last night, I have my menu planned for the rest of the month. Ready to hear what we are eating?
Meatball stew, stuffed burgers, savory salisbury steaks, tasty turkey tetrazzini, parmasean crusted chicken with creamy risotto, chicken fajitas, cheeseburger deep dish pizza, glazed teriyaki meatballs & noodles, moroccan chicken, Easy Tortellini toss, pork fried rice, brats, chili meatloaf and mashed potatoes(recipe already posted), mexican casserole, fettuccini alfredo, spaghetti pie, lasagna rolls, shepherds pie, tacos, and chicken pot pie. I have 1 night a week planned for leftovers or pizza if there isn't any leftovers to eat. We are also going up north one weekend.
If we like these items, I will post the recipe for all to see.
