Weekly Menu

Here is what we've had this week. I feel like we've been eating really well this week and it's been yummy and cheap too. I'm working hard to save quite a bit of money right now for a trip I want to take next month. I'm saving $100 per week. In order for me to do this I am cooking mostly with what I have on hand. I'm trying to stick to just buying mostly fresh fruits, veggies, milk, bread (because it's too hot to bake right now), and then just filler items to round out a meal. It's been kinda fun and I might try to keep it up even after the trip. We shall see...so here it is... Monday beef roast in the crockpot steamed rice peas grapes/cherries I found a boneless beef eye round roast on sale when I went to pick up groceries, it was about a 3.5 lb roast for around $5. I came home and stuck it in the small crockpot around noon with some dried onions and salt-free season all. We ate about 6 pm and it was sooo tender you could shred it. Yum! Tuesday...
