Week 16 Meal Plan

Temperatures are feeling more winter-like here in Wisconsin! I'm getting so excited for Thanksgiving, Advent, and Christmas coming up.

But I need to focus! I can't get ahead of myself dreaming of the future--it's never guaranteed.

I'm averaging about $70 on grocery bills each week without couponing. That's not too bad, right? I had to re-stock on a few basics this week, like extra-virgin olive oil, canola oil, and a few key spices. I know that when I need to re-stock on basics, I need to watch my meal plans even closer so I don't overshoot that $70 goal. Here's my meal plan this week:

1. Bean and pepper nachos
2. Homemade Margherita pizza
3. Pork chops with sautéed apples and onions
4. Crockpot BBQ pork with roasted cauliflower
5. Big Batch pierogis with cucumber/tomato salad
6. Pork chop stir fry with carrots and zucchini
7. Chicken with lemon-leek linguine
