Menu Plan Monday 4/4/11

I'm going to try something different this week.....I think I'm going to take all of our dinner plans and gather our menu from one place....my old recipes.  With being off the majority of last week, I know that work will be crazy and I need easy, easy, easy.  If you've followed my blog at all this last week, you know that everything I made, wasn't bad, but it just wasn't spectacular.  So I'm going old school with no new recipes, just tried and true favorites!

or Grocery Store Find

We're running particularly low on meats, and the last few weeks, I have relied on previously cooked and frozen chicken, etc.  I'm hoping that a deal will show up on the next round of grocery store circulars.  I'll take a loss leader any day and won't even be tempted to buy anything else.  Otherwise, the boys around here are going to become very familiar with a vegetarian diet :o)

Thanks for stopping by today and................

as always.....

Happy Monday :o)
