Happy Monday, everyone! This week is starting off to another sunny and wonderful start here in Dixie. This past weekend has been very eventful for us as a family. From minor plumbing issues to having to purchase yet another dishwasher, this past weekend was anything but boring. Thankfully, with the start of each new week’s, there’s the pleasant certainty of a well planned, money-saving meal plan. A plan I am ever so grateful to have!
This week’s menu again reflects our need to eat down our food stockpile. As we are having to consume everything we have on-hand first, though we did purchase several items food and home consumables, each of which garnered us back online app rebates, which will give us groceries and products that can help us in the weeks to come for our family of three as part of a minimalist meal plan.

So, folks, that’s this week’s Monday Meal Planning session. Simple, basic food options. Basic but yummy I say! Also, I wanted to mention that since the holiday’s I have been using my new favorite menu planning resource, Plan to Eat, and I really think you all might benefit from it as well. You can click on the photo below for more information. So now savvy savers, what’s on your menu plan for this week? I’d love to hear about it below!
