So not much has been going on this week. Trying to stay home and not spend money. We are pretty tight with our last money coming in, it wasn't the greatest (at least the bills our paid and we can eat) God has really been good to us since DH startd his own business. So to not leave the house to much I decided to do a two week menu plan instead of a week. Figure if I need to get out of the house then we will just have to freeze it out at the park (brr it sure is getting cold here)
Plus we are hopefully taking a dirt bike trip the second weekend of October so I'd like to have some money for that too.
So here are a meals for the next two weeks. I don't set a specific day for these. It is just easier for me to decide that day which one I will make.
-2 days for leftovers
-1 free night (we sometimes make meals w/ friends so I like to leave a night open for this)
-Oven fried Chicken Chimichangas, refried beans
-Chicken over biscuits
-Pulled pork sandwiches, fries
-Meatloaf, cheesy potatoes
-Homemade Chili w/ fritos
-German Style pork chops w/noodles
* As a note these are the best. They are so good. Yummo!!!

Thanks for the comment! I love love love no bake cookies! I also understand staying at home and not spend money! We tend to save when we aren't out and about too! I wish we would get some cooler tempertures here!
I am impressed with your menu plan, especially since you are on a budget.
Enjoy your week!

I understand completely about penny pinching! You did a great job with setting up your menu for the two weeks----flexible too! BTW--I love having breakfast for dinner too! There is something about it that makes it comforting!
what a great menu - the pictures are fablous and are making me very very hungry. we LOVE LOVE LOVE no bake cookies. it is one of my favorite things to make with my daughter - eating from the bowl never tasted so good. have a great week ~jenn
those pork chops look yummy! and so do the no bake cookies!
Your meal plan is great! I'm working on a budget too and actually plan for 2 weeks at a time. It saves money when I go to the store and do one big trip, instead of several over the 2 week period.
I'm going to add those German pork chops to my favs.

I'm salvating over those chimichangas. Yummy menu this week!
I am so craving meatloaf!
I am so impressed with your menu planning...that is one area that I'm sadly deficient in. LOL :)
I have a rotating list of standards for the month...sometimes what I plan for a week ends up stretching 2 weeks!
yum, breakfast for dinner. Haven't done that in a while.
Take care.
Great menu planning. Love those pork chops.
yum!! I need to do this! ;)
Those German Pork Chops DO sound awesome!
Isn't wonderful how God always provides when we are faithful to Him!

Oh I love no bake cookies! Everything looks great.
Oh my goodness, your menu looks delish! I love pulled pork! I plan our meals for a week as well. I do groceries only once and I've noticed since I started planning that there's a lot less wasted food and I also buy less and save $.
Thanks for sharing those ideas!
Everything sounds great!! I bookmarked the recipes to use later.
I love the no bake cookies, too!
Have a great week!
Yum to the pork chops and the chimichangas...actually, it all sounds really good, but those ones jumped out at me!
First time to your blog and it's such a keeper! How fun is this!!!
I love breakfast for dinner! I'm going to have to plan that for next week!
Aww thanks girl! And can I just tell you...that MPM is a fantastic idea....I should start doing that...would probably make my life a lot easier!!!! Working full time and trying to figure out what the heck to make for dinner makes me loopy *smile* Have a great one!
