My 2-Week Menu

Wow!! This was difficult to do today.  However, I managed to pick 2 weeks worth of dinners for my family.

Each week we pick new favorites and rotate them in the menu.  I also go through my coupons and check out the circulars before deciding on my final menu.  So here’s my menu for the next 2 weeks, if there are any that may entice you, let me know and I will post the recipe along with photos.

Week 1

Monday – Shrimp Velveeta Pasta Dish (Cowboy Wife’s Recipe)

Tuesday – Lemon Chicken Casserole

Wednesday – Chickpea, Cottage Cheese Pasta Dish

Thursday – Salmon and Wild Rice, with biscuits

Friday – Yellow Rice with Chicken, Red Beans and veggies

Saturday – Baked Rigatoni, garlic bread sticks and salad

Sunday – Grilled Burgers, Potato Salad, and Baked Beans

———————————-

Week 2

Monday – Homemade Pizza Night

Tuesday – Vegetarian Chili w/noodles and Corn Bread Casserole

Wednesday – Pork Loin w/Sour Cream Mashed Potatoes and veggies

Thursday – Take-Out Thursday

Friday – Taco Salad

Saturday – Chicken Parmesan, pasta and garlic bread

Sunday – Mama’s Jambalya

—————————–

It takes me approximately 2 hours to determine the menu, grocery list and match the coupons and determine which stores we would tackle. Then I give my hubby a list and I take a list and within 2 hours we are home and packing away our groceries.

Now will you take the challenge and shop for 2 weeks at a time? It is difficult at first but once you get used to it you would not have it any other way. With a family of 7 we always have to have our pantry stocked and doing this twice a month is wise and a great money saving tip.
