After going to Fresh & Easy & using a great coupon, I got over $50 of groceries for just $35! When I got home, instead of putting everything away, I left a few things out... and this is what I did!
1) Chicken on sale? Bought a 3 pound package & cooked it up. Separated it for a casserole I was making & then into 2 separate baggies, date labeled & in the freezer on the Chicken shelf!
2) While chicken was baking, I fried up a pound of sausage & cooked up tater tots. I made 2 breakfast dishes. One for this week & one for the freezer. This Crescent Roll Egg dish is deslish & a big hit! I also made my own variation of these Egg "Muffins" that I stuck in a freezer bag for quick easy breakfasts for later! So for about $11 i made breakfasts for roughly 20 servings! Not bad!
3)Double a casserole recipe. If your making dinner already, why not double the recipe & freeze the other half for dinner in 2 weeks??!
So, for this next week this is what our menu is looking like!
- Salsa Chicken for Burritos (frozen)
- Pineapple Fried Rice (our version, carrots, broccoli & peas added)
- Black Bean Quesadilla
- Sour Cream Noodle Bake (meat already cooked/frozen)
- Calazones
- Crescent Roll Breakfast Bake
