MPM - Using it up


I didn't go grocery shopping as I normally do on Friday. Instead, I hit Target, which recently added a mini grocery section. I was curious to see what they had and how prices compared to my normal grocery store. I learned two things.

1. It will be handy to grab produce, dairy or cold items when I am at the mall and don't feel like making another stop.
2. Target won't replace my regular grocery store, bummer! However, this fact is good for my checkbook. Target has far too many fun things which seem to find their way into my cart.

Therefore, this week, I'm digging it out and using it up. The only thing I plan to run to the smaller, local grocery for is a few fresh produce items and milk.

Main Dishes:
Oven Steamed Tilapia with fresh garlic, dill and butter
Beef Roast with rosemary, potatoes, carrots, onions, garlic, salt/pepper
Chicken Stir-fry with veggies & Rice Noodles
Grilled Steak
Pizza most likely 1/2 recipe grilled & 1/2 recipe oven baked
Chicken Enchilada's

Veggies & Side Dishes:
Italian Pasta & Veggie Salad
Grilled Veggies
Homemade Oven Fries
Grilled Garlic Bread
Chips & Salsa
Fresh Bread
Sauteed Green Beans
Corn
Lettuce Salad & Raw Veggies at every meal

What is on your menu for the week?
