Welcome! For those of you who are new to Meal Planning, go to my “Meal Planning” tab here to help you out while you are getting started – lots of great resources.
We ended up eating a lot of leftovers last week, so I am still slating a few meals from last week back in. Also, have you noticed lots of cantelope and strawberries in the past few weeks? It looks like they have gone back up in price, but we might see another little drop for a while, until they are completely out of season. I love summer, so many inexpensive fruits and veggies, stock up time!

This is our clean out the fridge/ freezer week, so I only spent $22 for groceries at Publix yesterday (saved $28). We are having:
Monday- spaghetti with meat sauce
Tuesday- Chicken casserole (freezer)
Wednesday- Zucchini/ bacon quiche. I have a ton of Zuc. in the freezer, so we are also making chocolate Zuc. bread this week.
Thursday- Frozen pizza
Friday- leaving for vacation!!
I see the free Arby’s sandwich on your lunch list…..did I miss it, are they running another free sandwich deal this week?
sorry, that was last week’s, I forgot to delete it!
