Menu planning to save money: What's for dinner 8-18-12 through 8-24-12

Chicken fricassee with sweet potato dumplings



Menu planning saves me money, plan and simple. During the summer months, life is a little more relaxed, but when the weather starts to get cooler, I get back to structured menu planning with even more purpose!

Here's what we'll be eating for dinner this week. Breakfast is pretty basic, we either have yogurt with homemade granola or oatmeal or toast and eggs. Lunch is almost always whatever was leftover from dinner the night before or a sandwich and soup. 
You'll find the links to most of the recipes in my blog. Let me know if you need help finding them!

  1. I have never been able to make and actually stick to it. :( Yours looks great though, and I'd love actually try my hands at making a frittata! :)
