Well, my dear MomCooks readers, this is going to be a very interesting week for me, food- and other-wise. First, I’m starting a 12 week, all-liquid diet called Optifast on Wednesday. And, my husband is leaving for England and Holland tomorrow and he’ll be gone for the next three weeks.

So, I decided to go [...]

I’m late posting today because I’ve been at the township library. My 13 year old son Ryan applied for and was chosen as one of 16 summer Teen Volunteers, and today was his first day! He helped sign kids up for the Summer Reading Program and then ran a water-relay-race game outside. I’m so proud [...]

We’re on a tight budget this week due to a bunch of bills that need paying, so I’m going to be shopping at Aldi this week. There’s a website called E-mealz that only costs $1.25 a week where you get a 7 day meal plan and a shopping list every Tuesday. I signed up [...]

Menu Plan Monday – 4-19-10

I had an epic shopping trip on Saturday night, using a handful of free product coupons sent by PR firms hoping I’ll post reviews of the products (which I will, eventually). I bought $144 worth of food for $57.00! Chris still can’t believe it, he made sure to tell each of the boys and [...]

Menu Plan Monday posted on Tuesday – oops!

Yesterday was a weird day and I didn’t get anything on my schedule done. Chris took the kids out to eat and I had a DiGiorno 200 calorie pizza which was disgusting. Sigh. I wish I had someone who would do my grocery shopping for me! Here’s what I have planned for this week.

Tuesday: [...]

This week, I’m making two recipes from The Stocked Kitchen, an absolutely brilliant cookbook/pantry system I picked up at the Home Show in Chicago last weekend.  The book, which has a spiral binding so it stands up or lays flat on the counter, contains over 300 recipes, all of which use only items on The [...]

I’ve been feeling really blah about meal planning lately, I don’t know why.  I’m making it super easy on myself this week and using recipes from Kraft, visit www.kraftrecipes.com to find thousands of them. I’m a fan of the “Budgetwise” category. Here’s the recipes I’m planning to make this week:

Easy Shepherd’s Pie, Crescent Rolls
