I can’t call this a true Menu Monday post, because our budget is so tight this week that we only purchased groceries for Sunday, today, and tomorrow. Chris will have to go out Wednesday after he gets paid and buy food for the rest of this week. I won’t be here so I don’t know what he’ll be buying.
Where will I be? I am joining a group of wonderful bloggers for a trip to Campbell’s Headquarters in Camden, New Jersey. I leave Wednesday morning and get back Friday afternoon. The itinerary includes spending Thursday taking a tour of the Campbell’s Kitchens!
In addition to their soups, Campbell’s also makes the Pace salsas and picante sauces, and V8 juices. We ONLY eat Pace Picante, have for years, and my kids love the V-Fusion juices. So I’m very excited to meet the folks who make such wonderful products!
So, last night we had Tasty Onion Chicken, Sour Cream Pan Biscuits, and Spicy Garlic Green Beans. Tonight we will have Spaghetti with Tangy Meat Sauce (we didn’t have it last week as planned) with garlic bread and corn. Tomorrow, since I’ll be packing for the trip, we’re keeping it simple with hot dogs and baked beans. I took photos as we made the chicken and biscuits last night, so I’ll have a food post for you with those photos soon.
Have a great week everybody!






























Wow – you lucky girl you.
I have to say, Campbells is one of the larger companies that I have more respect for.
Even in the days when I ran a small restaurant, their condensed soups would sometimes sneak into some of my recipes :)

Sounds like you’re gonna be having a lot of fun.
See that’s a way to do it. I made some great lemon flavored broccoli using inexpensive ingredients and it was great.

Onion Chicken and Sour Cream Pan Biscuits. Hmmm yum. Mouthwatering-ly delicious!
Enjoy the Spaghetti with Tangy Meat Sauce!
have a great time! sounds like lots of fun! bring back lots of great recipes!
What a great chance you got there, to go to the campbell´s headquarter! That is a qulity brand and I guess, the people making the recipes might be some good professional since, bringing a home made sauces at an industrial step, isn´t an easy thing!
Hope you are having a nice trip
Those are some great articles Elizabeth. Keep up the good work.

I know that sometimes I have to do the same thing. Buy what you can get right now and fill up the pantry later. Since I have young kids we always have to get out for extra milk anyways.
