Well, I am trying out a new recipe again tonight. It's called Sour Cream and Bacon Chicken. I found the recipe on Lamp Unto My Feet. It's been simmering in the crock-pot for about 6 hours. Smelling Good! I feel like I've got a few new meals that our family really enjoys, and I'm happy for that. There have definitely been some mishaps in the kitchen. And the kids haven't liked everything I've made, lol. But, it's a trial and error situation.
I'm still spending around $200 a paycheck(bi-weekly) on food alone. And that isn't going out to eat at all! Even home-cooked meals are not cutting into our food allowance in a positive fashion. But, neither are they imposing a negative effect. So, it's working out okay for the time being. I eventually would like to get it down by $50 a paycheck. But, I haven't figured that out yet.
I'm ordering more and more on amazon's subscribe and save program. It's a really great way to cut down on cost! I was skeptical at first because I didn't want to be tied down to having to make a purchase. But, once I realized that I can change the frequency of my items at any time, and can even postpone them altogether, I was all for it.
I've got to finish with this week's menu plan, so until next time....
