Weekly menu with shopping list 2/24-2/28


Weekly menu for under $100


I love to plan my weekly menu every Sunday night or Monday morning.  I do all my grocery shopping Monday morning when my kids are at school. I rarely have to make another grocery store run the rest of the week, as long as I prepare properly.  With proper planning, one trip is all you need.  So here is this week's menu complete with a grocery list.  I will add pictures as I make the meals each night. 

 

Tuesday- Lemony Chicken with leftover spaghetti squash casserole
Wednesday-Caramelized Pork with melon relish and Napa cabbage
Thursday- Slow cooker Mediterranean Brisket with buttered noodles
Friday- Leftovers
