What I Spent I went into this week with absolutely no menu plan…I was just winging it all week long and still, we didn’t eat out at all. Monday I found a package of chicken tenderloins in the freezer, so I thawed them and then seasoned and sauteed half of them. I think we just had some fruit on the side.

The weeks that I take the time to plan the menu are the weeks that I have control over our spending. The weeks were I don’t menu plan are the weeks that I’m at the grocery store multiple times or we get take out multiple times, leading to an out of control grocery spending. Menu planning saves me time.

Monday I found a small package of ground beef in the freezer along with some homemade burger buns so…we had burgers for dinner, topped with Swiss cheese. Sunday I found a few slices of bread in the freezer, so Zoe had some French toast plus the rest of the bacon, and I had some whole-wheat blueberry pancakes. Fruit on the side.

Sunday I went freezer spelunking and found a jar of homemade butter chicken sauce, a bag with two chicken thighs, and a package of marked-down naan. What We Ate Saturday I had a few Dinnerly meals left from a box last week and this was one: smash burgers with a special sauce, plus oven potato wedges. I cut up some produce for a side.

When managing my time, I am still a paper person, so when Mandi Ehman from Life.Your Way, let me review her package of more than 150 printables, I took her up on the opportunity. I have already started to use the blank calendar pages to track my running workouts and I'll probably use them for monthly menu planning too.

But nope…I just made bread cubes from the package of buns that I’m trying to use up! In the latest Five Frugal Things, I mentioned that I’d made croutons and I meant to say, “from hot dog buns” but I accidentally typed, “hot dogs” instead.
