Free lunch
A while back I was able to score a free steak from outback and I am pretty excited to be going to redeem that free lunch today! This week I have been pretty excited about cooking every night as I thought about how little I was spending to feed our family. Last night we had jambalaya (from a box I was a cheater don't judge me) but the sausage and box of mix was only about 2.00 total and we have some leftovers for one more snack or lunch! We also had steak sandwiches with some thin steaks I was able to get for a great price (I don't remember how much but it was not expensive) We had a white bean chili with chicken shredded (I bought the chicken in a packaged section from the refrigerated meat section it was precooked and shredded too) I think it was Hormel I would recommend that if you are looking for a great easy meal. Anyway I have been able to put dinner on the table for even less than normal. I am disappointed in myself today a little however because I can not believe I was not planning ahead for this; each week the "snack bag" is sent home with a different child to provide snacks for all of the children (10 children for 5 days) I could have been putting up some healthy snacks ahead of time but I guess it will be alright I think I have some coupons for stuff like yogurt and graham crackers but I could have been watching for sales on juice... anyway I will be ready 10 weeks from now when it is our turn again lol.
