Menu Monday

I've slacked lately when it comes to giving you my menu for the week.

I try to keep our meals at $5. Some nights the meal exceeds that amount... but usually we have enough leftover for lunches for the next day, BONUS!
Remember, for me, time means almost as much as money (or time is money!); so I do a lot of cooking ahead (cook my meat for three nights on the first night, etc.).

MONDAY
grilled chicken (season w/ whatever & throw on the grill, make enough for tomorrow night too) with hot dogs (for Wed night) (click HERE for a coupon for Kraft bbq sauce)
green peppers / zuccini (season w/ cheap italian dressing & grill) (click HERE for a Kraft dressing coupon, which probably makes it free!)
Jimmy John's 50-cent day-old bread (slice & brush open face w/ butter & garlic salt)
strawberries (ours were 'clearanced' down to 99 cents at our farmer's market)

TUESDAY
tossed salad (altho a little pricier, we prefer darker greens) with yesterday's chicken
JJ's day old bread (slice yesterday's other 1/2 & top w/ cheese of your choice, throw in toaster oven)
Aldi's fruit bars

WEDNESDAY
