Menu Plan Monday 10/6


Well, this week my oven decided to quit working. We knew it was only a matter of time. I am actually excited to be getting a new stainless steel range. But, staying true to the Dave Ramsey philosophy, we will not be purchasing a new range until we are able to pay cash. We are almost there, but this week's meals will all have to be cooked on the stove top, crock pot, Nesco roaster or toaster oven. We will have enough in savings by this Friday to go get the range, but we have a very busy weekend. So, we may actually have two weeks of stove-top cooking.

Breakfasts

Toaster Strudel
Eggos
Oatmeal
Cereal/Milk

LOL - we didn't get to the chicken chili either last week! We love this recipe http://www.3sidesofcrazy.com/2008/03/abc-pork-roast-apricot-bourbon.html for pork roast.

The Colorado white chili looks yummy! I'll be trying that soon.

My favorite way to do a pork roast in the crockpot is to sprinkle it with thyme, salt and pepper and add a can of mushrooms and a can of cream of mushroom soup. When the roast is done I just thicken the gravy to my taste with some cornstarch.

Have a great week!

It must be soup and grilled cheese week! I've seen a few on some other MPMs! I'll have to get on the bandwagon soon! A great fall meal indeed!
Yummy eats for you guys this week!

Wow- you are a daring lady. I hope it all goes well. I think next week I need to try to add some breakfasts and lunches on my list as well.

Your menu looks great, and I love crockpot recipes! We also are Dave Ramsey followers, and I must say I'm a little jealous you get to go see him live! Have fun.
