Meng Menu


Sunday: Pigs in a blanket, chips, veggies and dip
Monday: Cheeseburger soup, bread
Tuesday: Marinated Asian pork, rice, broccoli
Thursday: Italian Stuffed peppers, salad
Friday: Pork chops, parmesan rice, green beans
Saturday: Leftover soup 

Under budget this week at $112! Plus I am trying to use fewer carbs (rice, potatoes, pasta) in our meals (Aaron's request) so I am experimenting with some new recipes. This week the newbies are the Tuna casserole (which is a mix of pasta and cauliflower) and the stuffed peppers. 

I kinda hated stuffed peppers when I was a kid but I am giving it another go as an adult. This recipe looks especially promising. I'm not a huge recipe-follower so I am jazzing up the one linked above. I'm using mild italian sausage and some cream cheese to add some extra flavor and creaminess. We'll see how it goes! 

Do you have any lower-carb favorites that your family loves?
