Grocery shopping time again

Good gravy!  I think the prices have sky-rocketed again!  I won't bore you with the list of items I bought this time...suffice it to say that I spent A LOT and I even went through all the ads and had wal-mart comp the prices!

So here are some meals for this week:

Friday Night:
French bread pizza. I bought 2 loaves of french bread on the reduced rack for .86/each.
The kiddos will have pepperoni and Rory and I will have canadian bacon and pineapple.

Saturday Night:
Crock pot cube steak
Cube steak--I paid more than I normally would for these but I want to try this recipe.  I think I paid about $7 for the package and it had 7-8 steaks in it.  So there should be leftovers, too.  I had the rest of the ingredients at home.
cream of mushroom soup
lipton dry soup mix
throw in the crock pot and cook all day
sides:  fried squash and probably cucumbers and tomatoes from the farmer's market

Sunday Night:
Shrimp Po-Boys
I bought spinach to go on these.  We usually substitute spinach for lettuce most days. I already had the shrimp ($5 at wally world--already cooked, peeled and deveined)
tomatoes from farmer's market
buns

Monday Night:
Grilled pork chops--on sale this week for $1.97/lb
fresh green beans from farmer's market
roasted caulifower

Tuesday Night:
Southwestern Chicken and Cornbread Salad.
It's a recipe from Martha Stewart--Martha Stewart I am not--don't even really care for her but the recipe looks good.  You can see it here

Wednesday Night:
Woohoo Farmer's Market is open...hope to get some fresh pinto beans and make those and whatever else I pick up that day.

Thursday Night:
Leftovers if there are any or if we haven't eaten them for lunch during the week

Breakfast is usually waffles, sausage biscuits, eggs and bacon, cereal or whatever grabs your fancy.  For lunch we have leftovers or sandwiches--pb&j, ham or turkey.  There's plenty of fresh fruit, too.  We have apples, bananas, grapes, blueberries and cherries and lots of tomatoes and cucumbers from the farmer's market.

Happy Eating!
