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 [...]

Monday: Sloppy Joes, corn, watermelon
Tuesday: Chicken Parmesan Alfredo, garlic bread, peas
Wednesday: Campbell’s Slow [...]

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 [...]
Elizabeth posted this in Menu Monday on March 22nd, 2010 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 [...]
Elizabeth posted this in Featured, Menu Monday on March 1st, 2010 Please pardon the odd look of the site while I figure out a way to make this Lifestyle theme work here. I thought I could fix it up myself but now I think I’ll have to ask for help. I’m not sure about the red background and the blue border, don’t be surprised if your [...]

Monday: Cola Chicken with mashed potatoes and green beans
Tuesday: Easy [...]

For this week’s menu plan, I’m using mainly The Low G.I. Diet by Rick Gallop. If you are familiar with The Zone diet, or South Beach, or the new Weight Watchers Simply Filling Technique, that is what a low glycemic index diet is. Sticking mostly to foods that are low in sugar and fat [...]
Elizabeth posted this in Menu Monday, Weight Watchers on April 13th, 2009
Two words: Weight Watchers. I get 23 POINTS a day. I adapted these menus from the 7-Day, 4-Weeks Menu Planner in the 2008 Weight Watchers Annual Recipes for Success cookbook. Each day I should get 2 servings of dairy and at least 5 servings of fruits/veggies.
I won’t limit the kids as far as [...]
