Oh magosh! I actually got it done. On Sunday. Like……before 8 o’clock.
Apparently, miracles DO happen!
There’s even a completed grocery list and everything.
Ha!
Go me!
It’s been quite a while since these things have happened in a timely manner. See me getting back on track (however slowly)??

I’m working on it guys, I promise!! The move, as well as the 2 weeks I spent bed-ridden beforehand, have really done a number to my routine. I’m finding it hard to get back into the groove of things, or, any groove for that matter. But the intent and desire are there, it’s just a matter of powering through! You guys are a big help to me. Knowing that you’re out there, waiting (with bated breath, I’m sure) for new posts helps my butt get into gear.

And a great big THANKS! goes out to you!! (Big virtual hug inserted here please)

And now, since we’ve gotten the mush out of the way, we can get on with the meal plan. This week is about ‘Cheap’…

Sunday – Well, today is a bit blank on the meal plan. I still haven’t decided if we’re going to further dent the leftover turkey mac-n-cheese or if we’re going to scrounge something else up. We’ve got some fresh corn-on-the-cob in the fridge that needs to be devoured, I’m just not sure if that’s happening tonight or not.

Monday – It’s the Dump & Ditch Pizza that was scheduled for last week that never got made on the plan for today. It’s so tasty, we can’t wait.

Tuesday – Cheesy Taco Pasta will fill our plates tonight. Quick. Easy. Delicious.  3 of my fave adjectives when it comes to dinner. (FREE being numero uno….)
**In searching for the post to link up, I can’t find it although I clearly remember doing it. If I never posted it, my most sincere apologies go out to you!!! There will DEFINITELY be one this week!**

Wednesday – It’s a new Dump & Ditch tonight! Chicken & Rice that I’ll be pairing with some fresh green beans. This one came from SlowAndSimple.

Thursday – We’ve had several different varieties of this lately, and we’ll be having another in a couple of weeks as it’s Dominic’s requested Birthday dinner. Tonight, however, we will be having broccoli with the Dump & Ditch version of Mac -n- Cheese that I’ll either be adding ground turkey or turkey sausage to. Price will be determining factor on this one…

Friday – Saucy Beef & Noodles is our last scheduled meal of the week. This was a tasty meal but not one that has been repeated yet (for some unknown reason…we’ll call it aliens-taking-my-brain-for-experimentation even though it’s much closer (I’m sure) to Mo-just-spacing-and-not-paying-attention-to-the-recipe-archive). All of that is coming to an end as of today! …   Or at least, that’s the goal!

Saturday – Here lies our scheduled Scrounge day. Dominic’s parents will be in town for Easter again this year and we’re unsure of the schedule yet so this was a great day to “plan” for food freedom.

~~closing fanfare heard here~~

There it be. With a new recipe and everything! Well, we can almost claim 2 new recipes since the post from the 1st trial of Cheesy Taco Pasta is MIA and presumed dead… ( I know I remember knockin’ that sucker out…but where-oh-where did it go?? Hello internet-land-of-the-lost……Whadja’ do with it?!?!?!???)

Hoping you have a happy week with wonderful meals to go with it,
