do you have a crock pot?

Quoting *Dani* DJ & Zeke'sMom!! *:" do you have a crock pot?"

yes!

Quoting Kaley & Kendall  :" yes!"

pork BBQ is good. you can eat it more than once.
Use potatoes as sides!!!! Those you can make in all different forms.
Also could you tell me your budget and when you have to get to? I could help you make a menu.
What i do is stick to the Menu.
We spend about 100-120 a week for groceries

i have about $200 for two weeks.

its just me, my daughter, and her dad.
I need it to last 13 days.

hamburger pie,
it is 1 cup tomato soup ( more if you like)
1 cup frozen veggies or canned.
1 lb burger and mashed potatoes
, fry the burger and drain, mix in veggies and tomato soup.
mash potato, pour burger mixture in a casserole dish, frost with potatoes. heat in oven at 350 for about 20 mins... or until potatoes start to brown. add cheese to the top if desired... enjoy.

ok are you picky at all? Anything you wont eat? Where do you shop? And so you are making this till the 13th?

Me and her dad are very picky, pretty much no tomatoes, peppers, onions, or anything. we eat everything pretty bland, only use ketchup and bbq sauce as condiments lol

And i will probably shop around depending on sales and according to my list.

also, thank you!!
And itll actually be for the 12th through the 25th...
thats my next pay period i am just budgeting ahead.

spag bol
chicken curry, i use a whole chicken for like 4 meals some breast for curry, some breast for baguette/sandwiches, legs for roast chicken dinner and the carcass and leftovers for chicken noodle soup.
pasta bake/potato bake
casserole/stew

you can make homemade chicken noodle soup and then save the chicken you used to make the broth to make something for the next day.

i use 1 whole chicken and put in a large pot with water to completely cover the chicken. season with salt and pepper and let it boil for about an 1.5 hours or so. just keep checking it and tasting the broth until it gets to how you want. i put carrots, celery and onions in it (all very cheap and a whole chicken is usually about $7... and stretching it for two days is great!)
when the broth is done, i take the chicken out and put it in the fridge. cook whatever kind of noodles you want and add them to the broth. TA DA! freakin awesome homemade chicken noodle soup   we love crackers with ours, too.

the next day, i usually make this asian-ish chicken egg and rice thing.

get the chicken out of the fridge and tear the chicken off the bone. put it in a large skillet with about five (however many you want, i make enough for SO and i to have two meals out of it. dinner that night and lunch the next day and SO eats a tonnnnn) beaten eggs. i also put in onions and mushrooms (also cheap!) and cook them all together in the skillet with a little bit of soy sauce. after it's done cooking, i put all of it over white rice and mix together.

it's delicious, cheap and filling! it's also a nice break from hamburger meat 

Last question and i can get started. What meals are you making? Breakfast lunc and dinner?

Breakfast is taken care of, so is lunch on most days [besides the weekend]

so pretty much just dinner

ok sounds good. Give me a few.  

Here is what i came up with.
12- chili
13- Tacos
14- Pramisan chicken (will post recipie)
15- BBQ pork
16-Chili Mac
17- Meatloaf (http://allrecipes.com//Recipe/easy-meatloaf/Detail.aspx)
18- Sloppy Joe
19- Spegitti
20
21- BBQ pork
22- Chili
23- Pramisan Chicken
24- Meatloaf
25- Chili mac.



I know a lot repeat, but its 2 seperate weeks. the pramisan chicken is chicken breast pounded out flat. (i use a hammer flat side) I warp the chicken in plastic wrap before i pound it out.
Whip an egg with milk. In seperate dish mix together 2T flour, equal parts Pramasan cheese, and bread crumbs. add a bit of salt.
Dip flattened chicken into egg mix, then into batter.
Fry for aprox 7 min on each side in a pan with olive oil.
