On our HomeSchool Haven Blog,

a friend of mine left a comment asking me to share our menu

while we were spending our meal times in our empty house.

Since we are unsure as to how long we'll be here

I only made a menu for a week instead of two.

"Frugal" Menu for a Week in Our Empty House:

Mon. 10/23 ~ Black Beans & Brown Rice (optional tortilla)

          (salsa mixed in for mexican flavor)

Tues. 10/24 ~ Sloppy Joes/fries

         (note: sloppy joes are made with ketchup/mustard/etc...)

Wed. 10/25 ~ Ground turkey, brown rice, and green bean casserole

         (only using half a pound of ground turkey)

Thurs. 10/26 ~ Tacos

         (made with half pound ground turkey and refried beans)

Fri. 10/27 ~ Homemade Pizza

         (unfortuneately, not sourdough but still homemade)

Sat. 10/28 ~ Chicken and Brown Rice casserole

         (one small pkg of chicken breast, cubed, with rice & seasonings)

Sun. 10/29 ~ Spaghetti/garlic bread

         (either meatless or half a pound of ground turkey)

To cook, I set aside my iron skillet, a 2 quart glass pot,

a 9x13 baking dish, and a round cookie sheet/pizza pan.

It was a blessing to get all that we needed for around $60.00
