So, we are out of Thanksgiving leftovers somehow already...so I'm cooking today...I don't have my full week plans yet, but thanks to Aldi's discounting 85-15 ground beef under $2.50/lb and selling fresh pico for $.79 (another thing they had to get rid of, on top of $.25 fresh cranberry bags - yes, I got 6 to freeze for breads and fresh sauces), I'm making CHILI today! So, here's today's and tomorrow's plan...
Sat - Beef and Bean Chili - toppings of cheddar cheese, sour cream, and chips to dip, Homemade Apple and Fresh Cranberry Muffins
Sun - Restaurant-style Nachos (chili, fresh guac, cheddar, sour cream, shredded lettuce, pico), Leftover Muffins - fun football food...
So, I went shopping today and organic, steriod and antibiotic free turkey breasts were 49 cents/lb (vs the pre-Thanksgiving price of $3.99/lb)...I wish I had tons of freezer space, but I only grabbed 2 - one I'm making tomorrow in a crockpot (this is a 1st, but this turkey says it will work and it will fit - we'll see...
Mon - Chicken and Shrimp Dumplings, Blackberry/Strawberry/Banana Fruit Crisp
Tues - Steak Fajitas with Lettuce, Pico, Fresh Avocado, Sour Cream, Fresh Pineapple
Wed - Crockpot Turkey Breast, Scalloped Potatoes (another stupid good deal), Green Bean Casserole (another stupid good deal), Strawberries
Thurs - Leftover Turkey, Stouffer's Mac and Cheese, Red Grapes, Blueberry and Pomegranate Muffins (homemade)
Fri - Frozen Pizza, Caesar Salad, Pina Colada Smoothies
Sat - Murder Mystery Dinner Party with Friends - as hosts, we are bringing Roasted Chicken Breast and Roasted Portobello Mushroom with Raw Bruschetta Topping, the Roasted Italian Veg Platter, the Gluten-Free Bread and Olive Oil Dip, the Champagne Fruit Soup, and the Wines (including a homemade Italian Sangria) - others folks are filling in the apps, sides, and desserts...
