Menu & Shopping List This Week

Here's my menu for the next weeks meals:

Thurs. - Spaghetti (see this is why I need your help!) with Garlic Bread
Fri. - Chicken & Rice Casserole (I'll post the recipe after I make it, I've not tried it yet)
Sat. - I work so it's left over Casserole for my husband and I to take to work and our little guy will eat at Grandma's House
Sun. - Lasagna
Mon. -Again I'm working so we'll eat leftovers
Tues. - Home Made Burgers & Fries
Wed. - BBQ Pork Chops with Baked Potatoes and Green Beans
Thurs. - Crock pot Chicken & Veggies

Now as you can probably tell from my menu, my husband is a very "meat & potatoes" kind of guy. So I'm constantly looking for good, healthy, hearty meals! Now here's my grocery list:

Milk (2 gallons) $4
Chicken $10
Cream Chicken Soup (replenishing)$4
Sour Cream $2
Rice (have some, but stocking) $2
Potatoes (red & baking) $4
BBQ Sauce (stocking) $3
Gravy (jar) $2
Carrots (baby bagged) $2
Peas (frozen) $2
Lettuce (1 head) $2
Cottage Cheese $2
Spaghetti Sauce (2 packets) $2

For a Grand Total of about $41.00 I'll be able to feed my family of 3 the above listed menu for the next week =) That's not including the pork chops which I already have, lunch and breakfast stuff I already have as well. Other than just a couple of things on the list (lettuce, milk, rice, spaghetti sauce, BBQ sauce, things I'm just replenishing in my cupboards) I'm able to save about $20.00 this week =) That makes me quite happy!
