Meal Plans for week of 8/7/17

Meal Plans for week 2 of no spend.   Yesterday I bought tomatoes and strawberries.  6.99

1. Cube steaks, loaded baked potatoes,salad 
2. Pizza
3. Breakfast for dinner 
4. Chicken in rosemary butter sauce , rice mix, veggies 
5. Salmon patties. Rice, veggies 
6. Tostadas 
7. Sausage quiche 

1. Cube steaks were bought on a bogo. 
2. Pizza continues to be a favorite and is 1.03 to make .
3. Breakfast for dinner opens up many possibilities , 
4. Chicken breasts were 1.50 last time.   Sometimes they are as low as .88
5. Salmon -patties from costco canned salmon
6. Meat, cheese, tomato,lettuce, olives 
7. Sausage quiche is a favorite here and the sausage was free.    That makes the dish 53 cents.   

Averaging a few really cheap dinners with some that are a bit more expensive makes for a variety of meals and means you can have some meals that are a little more pricy.   

Our sausage was free with a digital coupon.   It took me all of ten seconds to click a box on an e mail.   It gave us a 5.79 chub of sausage.   I usually only pay around two dollars for sausage.   The price went up , but I ave still been able to find sales and coupons to keep my RBP.   If it gets to high, we will make our own.    With proper equipment , things are easy to make from scratch.   It doesn't happen overnight but buying one thing at a time and buying quality pays.  My insta pot and food processsr are workhorses in the  kitchen.
