Meals from grocery ads

Basically a bargain isn't a bargain unless you eat it. I have been buying a lot of fruit lately because it is in season. We eat a lot of fruit for snacks and desert.

Making a meal plan helps ensure that you use up what you bought, nothing gets away from you, and you don't have to think about what to cook when you are tired. Just seven main dishes works. They don't have to be tied to a particular day of the week. I do plan a meal for a specific day if I know we are having company or we need to get our of the house before our regular mealtime.

Here goes based on this weeks specials.

1) roast chicken, leafy green salad with strawberries, mashed potatoes.

2) French toast, strawberries and blueberries, whip cream, bacon

3) shrimp stir fry with red pepper, carrots, and celery. Rice

4) chicken chimichangas with lettuce, tomato, sour cream, salsa.

5) BBQ pork sandwiches, sweet potato fries, carrot and celery sticks.

6) macaroni and cheese, glazed carrots, strawberry shortcake

7) spaghetti and meatballs, lettuce salad, French bread.

Most of these are 4 plus1 is 5.

Happy eating.

Thanks for stopping by.
