It's a birthday week at my house as my husband is celebrating his birthday on Friday. That meal isn't planned yet since he still hasn't decided what he wants other than the cake. Our pantry is looking better but I'm still seriously lacking in the meat department around here. Since one of my goals is to cook from scratch more, I've been looking up new recipes to try.
Sandwiches, chips, fruit
Slow Cooker Orange Chicken, brown rice, broccoli
Salsa Chicken and Black Bean Soup (I bought dried black beans for this, a first for me. I usually use canned beans in recipes.)
leftovers
Birthday Dinner? and Red Velvet cake

I went to several stores this week. This isn't the way I normally shop but since I'm rebuilding the stockpile I'm taking advantage of more of the deals out there. It really didn't take that much time. On Monday, I went to the bakery thrift store, Walgreens, CVS and Winn-Dixie. The whole trip took about an hour. Then on Wednesday I went to Walmart to pick up some things and used my gift card. I decided to try the bakery thrift store this week and was so happy I did. They carry Nature's Own bread which is one of the brands I like to buy. And while their everyday price of $1.49 is about $1 cheaper than it is in most stores around here, they have a Manager's Special table and I was able to get it for even less. Happy dance! Here's a breakdown of my deals.

Okay, I know I said in my weekly menu planning post that I'm going to try to do more cooking from scratch but my husband saw the Tombstone make a meal deal at Winn Dixie and declared we had to have it. The breadsticks and mozzerella sticks that were part of the deal were sold out so I got a rain check for them.

1 pkg. Winn Dixie Breadsticks Free(will get with rain check)
1 pkg. Farm Rich mozzarella sticks Free(will get with rain check)
1 2 liter Coke Free

Total spent: $23.05
No picture for Walmart. I bought basic things like milk, flour, dry beans, peas, yogurt, etc.
