Meal Plan

Okay, we're getting into the swing of our schedule now :) You're going to be seeing LOTS of crock pot recipes from me, many courtesy of crockpot365.blogspot.com :)

I'm moving to a monthly meal plan, because I think it'll be easier to shop less with our schedules the way they are. I need meals that are ready before I get home from work, since my husband will have to eat before I get home.

This is what's on the menu for this month:

Fajitas
Tamale Pie
Chimichangas (excited to try this one!)
Buffalo Chicken Lasagna
Hasbrown Casserole
Corn and Spinach Enchiladas
AuGratin Taco Bake
Potato Soup
Chicken Caesar Salad (not crockpot, but it's easy to assemble and a favorite in our house)
Calzones - not crockpot, but I can freeze and re-heat :)
Stromboli - freezes well :)
Japanese Mum's Chicken
Bourbon Chicken
White Chicken Chili
Spaghetti
Rosemary Chicken Salad Sandwiches

With leftovers and things like grilled cheese or frozen pizza this menu will last us an entire month, or more.

I went shopping and spent about $250 on groceries for all of the meals above, plus filler stuff and stuff for lunches. All in all, not bad. And, I honestly think it'll last us closer to 2 1/2 months.
