We've been celebrating Passover this past week at the Frugal Follies household, which means no bread, pasta, rice, and many other foods. But the holiday ends Tuesday night, so we'll be celebrating by having a big pasta feast!Otherwise, many of our meals will be coming from the pantry. Getting ready for the holiday meant bigger than usual grocery bills - even with a ton of frugal purchases, I still went over budget two of the last four weeks. Plus, we'll be replenishing the cupboard this week, which will take up much of the grocery budget. So we'll be eating from things we've already stockpiled, and making bread items from scratch.
Here's what's for dinner this week:
Monday - hamburger patties (no buns), homemade sweet potato fries
Tuesday - pasta with tomato and Alfredo sauces, Caesar salad, garlic bread
Wednesday - poached salmon fillets over salad, breadsticks
Thursday - mushroom pizza on whole wheat pizza dough, fruit
Friday - baked chicken breasts, rice, salad, challah
Saturday - 3 Can Veggie Chili over pasta, veggie sticks
Sunday - eating out!
