Menu Ideas from the Brookshire's Ad

A meal plan is a great way to save money and not waste food.

I want to show you that as long as you are intentional in your shopping and cooking, you will save money on your grocery bill regardless if you use coupons or not.

Generally, the cost of the whole meal will be less than or equal to the tip you would leave at a restaurant.

These ideas are taken directly from the Brookshire's circulars and using Brookshire's Match-ups and are based on a family of four.

If you will be cooking Thanksgiving dinner at your house this year, you may want to consider buying the Real Big Deal this week.  When you buy the turkey, you get the trimmings FREE!

This week you could make:

• Breakfast for Supper - Pigs in a Blanket, Eggs, Yogurt, Apple Slices, & Orange Juice
• Hot Chicken Salad Casserole over Rice
• Cabbage Rolls  (use sausage instead of beef) and Corn & Green Chili Casserole 
• Taco Ring, Refried Beans, Mexican Rice
• Bacon Cheeseburger Bombs & Potato Wedges
• Ham & Croissant Bake, Cabbage, and 
• Navy Bean Soup (use leftover bacon or ham) and Cornbread
• Svickova Pot Roast w/Dumplings
• Pot Roast Sliders (using leftover roast), Orange Wedges, and Cilantro Slaw
• Skinny Corn Chowder & Salad

Leftover Ideas:  

• Chicken & Rice Soup (make stock from chicken bones and use leftover vegetables and rice)
