I don't know about many of you, but sometimes I have a difficult time with trying to
be creative with dinner. We try to eat as healthy as possible so I try my hardest
to use as much fresh produce and less "canned" items.
One thing is for sure, we try to stick to a budget with groceries, I hit up our local Ranch Market for our produce and stock up on meat when it's on sale and also get it from Costco. A
bag of chicken last us at least 2 months! As well as the fish, we just separate it into 2 servings.
And cooking for 2 is nice because Mister and I are both able to take lunch
to work the next day! {We don't mind left overs}
I do wish I had more time on my hands to truly study over
every ad and price match everything. Sometimes I think that actually might take up less time
then hitting up 3 or 4 different grocery stores every Friday morning! But then again, the ad's don't always
have every single item that is on sale each week. Or do they and I am just that dumb?? And I do try to avoid Walmart. I know they can have everything, but I like to support my local grocery stores. So if that does means a little more time, fine by me!
Anyway...onto our Dinner Menu for the next week! I thought some of you
may like this, to help you put together your list.
Friday: Stuffed Bell Peppers
Saturday: Date Night

We usually do a vegetable side dish as well. Either steamed veggies or a salad. Super easy!
