This week I am going to start trying to give you an idea of what we are having on our weekly meal plan. Some items will be from previous sales, items I have stocked up on that are in my pantry and freeze. But for this week almost everything I am planning is also on sale this week. Be sure to checkout the “Any Store Plan” for an idea of what you can purchase that should be on sale at most any store.
I’m listing some of the things on sale at various grocery stores, and then following that with a selection of recipes from my Recipe Box that coordinate with those sales. Let me know if you like this and if it helps you out with planning your meals this week.

My Weekly Meal Plan
Sunday: Classic Pot Roast
*I will shred leftovers and use in two more meals this week; the philly cheesesteak and beef enchiladas.
Monday: Tomato Basil Soup with Grilled Cheese
*Double this recipe and freeze leftovers for later.
Tuesday: Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich
Wednesday: Taco Salad
*Save extra taco meat to make a tortilla soup.
Thursday: Beef Enchiladas with Spicy Black Beans (no, my kids don’t eat this!)
Friday: Pizza Night – Use this Homemade Pizza Dough and Homemade Pizza Sauce (my husband loves this easy dough!)
*I use whatever is in the refrigerator as toppings. We have lots of spinach, cheese and pepperocini’s or even some taco meat.
