Menu Plan Monday

We've run smack into the wall when it comes to money and our budget.  We are looking everywhere to tighten our belt loops so we don't drown.  One way of doing this is organizing all of our spending including food.

Things we're not willing to compromise on right now is eating organically and primally.  We've set a budget of $100 each week for a primal family of four.  We're doing this by stocking up on things that are on sale, using what we have and ignoring last minute cravings for specific food, and sticking to the plan.

This week, we spent about 60 bucks to fill in the spaces for what we didn't already have.  It's easy to do though the week after thanksgiving.  Our lunches will be leftover turkey, and a turkey stew I made on Sunday.  Dinners will be the variety listed below. :)


Monday: Turkey Stew, left over Turkey
Tuesday: Taco Salad
Wednesday: Morrocan Lamb Meatballs
Thursday: Breakfast
Friday: Bratwurst and cooked carrots
Saturday: Butterly Lamb
Sunday: Leftovers

All meals will have a salad.  Here's my favorite link of home made dressing!

Some of this weeks snacks will include:
Primal Almond Butter Pumpkin Brownies
Banana Bread
