Can you tell chicken was on sale this week? It was BOGO for Tyson Frozen Chicken (any variety) at Kroger so I bought two! I was actually a little nervous about shopping today, feeling that I was sure to go over our budget of $125. Aaron needs to do this experiment for his Anthropology course and he picked cooking salmon on cedar planks for his little project. In my mind all I saw was $$$. BUT, when all was said and done, my total bill was......

$109.41.

YES! 

I saved $36.13 with my Kroger card and an additional $5.25 with coupons that Kroger so graciously sends me in the mail weekly. So, I was under-buget by quite a bit. And I am quite happy. And REALLY looking forward to Grilled Salmon on a cedar plank tonight for dinner. :)

  1. We had the cheeseburger pie last night? What did you think? Jared and I were big fans. Naomi was being a stinker so I don't know that she would have eaten anything willingly. Charlotte ate her whole piece when she was told she could only have a snack if she cleaned her plate :) It'll definitely be a repeat recipe around here- and likely one that I take to new mamas when they get home because it's cheap and quick!

  2. We actually DIDN'T like it that much but I'm glad you did! I really liked the Cordon Blue Casserole. We had that the other day. Glad your family enjoyed the recipe! :)
