Menu Plan Monday - Christmas Week


With this being Christmas week, I'm not planning a lot of new and complicated dishes. Our grocery budget was $40 this week to feed a family of seven, so I don't have a lot to work with. We still have a few packages of roast beef that another family gifted us with some time ago and we'll have to use another one. My daughter is a big meat fan (I am not) so she'll be happy anyway.

Our normal night for pizza and pop (with a movie) is Thursday but we won't do that on Christmas day. This time we'll have it on Wednesday, Christmas Eve.

Monday

Fettuccine Alfredo
Peas
Salads

Tuesday

Hash Browns
Cheese Omelets
Toast and butter & jelly

Wednesday

Pizza & Pop

Thursday - Christmas Day

Baked Ham
Mashed Potatoes
Green Beans
Corn
Brown Sugar Butternut Squash
Homemade Rolls

Friday

Potatoes
Broccoli & Cheese

Saturday

Beef & Noodles (Johnny & I take plain noodles and sprinkle with Parmesan)
Corn

Sunday

On your own

It sounds like you worked out a great meal plan for $40 for a family of 7!
