There are so many good deals right now at the stores, I am just really trying to stock up on cleaning supplies and other cheap finds while I have the chance.
Great deals on meat/protein this week: (start with this first, plan your meals around the most expensive part of the meal) * If you don’t have the same stores as I do, just start with the meat section at your store!
** Don’t want to go to a bunch of stores? If it is in your ad, you can price match at Walmart!

I have had a bag of Tater tots in my freezer for a while and have ground beef and soup already so I figured it was a cheap and easy meal! A few people suggested the Dugger Families recipe and so that is the one I will try, I am going to 1/2 this recipe!

::SATURDAY:: – Fajitas – I will be grabbing some fajita meat at my HEB. I will get both beef and chicken ( a little more chicken) hoping for extra chicken for a Sunday casserole. If you do not have a HEB, you can use skirt steak or flank steak and just make your own.

::SUNDAY:: Chicken PoppySeed Casserole – Make enough chicken from the fajitas the night before and chop it up as you put it away, that way you have it ready to go for this meal. This is a favorite of my kids because they usually make it themselves. Plus I always have everything on hand and it is cheap! If you don’t have leftover chicken, you can always grab a rotisserie chicken and pull the meat off or use canned chicken.

For the Man Pleasing Chicken, what could be substituted for Maple Syrup? I absolutely cant stand the smell or taste of maple syrup at all, but I keep looking at this recipe and thinking “hey that looks really tasty”.
Do you think brown sugar or even honey would work?
I am guessing honey? Oh Brown sugar would be good!
Who doesn’t like maple syrup?! 🙂
Me! lol I had an extreme aversion to Maple Syrup when I was pregnant. If we were in a restaurant and I could smell maple syrup I would get so nauseous that we would have to leave. The aversion stayed. I know, Im a freak of nature. Thanks for the substitution suggestions.
