Meal plans for week of 9/2/18

Meal Plans are a tool used to make life easier and less hectic during the dinner hour,   Along  with Kitchen Management it just makes dinners easier and more predictable,
  1.  Brats, roasted carrots, potatoes, peppers , rolls 
  2. Ham and cheese heros , salad 
  3. Hot dogs, corn on the cob, salad 
  4. Tacos, refried beans 
  5. Vegetable enchiladas 
  6. Salmon patties, corn , salad 
  7.  Breakfast for dinner 

Notes 
  1. Brats were free from QFC,  peppers were a dollar each at Winco, 
  2. Uncurled ham was on sale at Costco,   Rolls are from the Franz Outlet 
  3. Hot dogs. Corn on cob , salad—Labor Day 
  4. Tacos are from beef purchased at Zaycon, a taco kit from GO and homemade refried beans 
  5. Vegetable enchiladas  are from a recipe on Betty Crocker on line cookbook,   Use homemade enchilada sauce.
  6. Salmon is from a can from Costco.  
  7. Breakfast for dinner is a family favorite,   Everyone cooks. 

It’s not necessarily what you buy, but more when and where you buy it. 
No food is going to do your family any good of you are feeding it to the garbage disposal. 
Rule of thumb: Four plus one is five.   Four. People, one meal, five bucks.  *


* dinner is discussed here,  less for breakfast and lunch.  At four dollars a day, you can’t figure on using all four  dollars for actual food eaten, because there is still basics that have to be purchased,   Like olive oil, spices , etc.
