Menu Plan Monday - Crockpot Week


I have a busy week ahead of me where I'll be gone 4-5 evenings, leaving my family in the hands of my trusty crockpot.

Greatest invention EVER!


Breakfasts

Strawberry Banana Smoothies
Pancakes with homemade maple syrup
Oats with apples and brown sugar
Poached eggs and toast
Leftover Pancakes

Dinners

Spaghetti, green beans
Homemade Mac & Cheese, Marinated Veggie Salad
Crockpot Baked Potato Bar with salsa, sour cream, chili, cheese
Leftover Night

Check back tomorrow to see if I stuck within our $60 for 6 people budget. For more great menu ideas go HERE.

I see that your class is in Longview Wash so was jsut curious if that is where you live? I used to live in Astoria OR and we would go to Longview because it was the closest Walmart! LOL I was a bit Walmart obsessed at the time. Anyway I live in GA now but I miss the crazy NW weather. Love the blog!!!!

love your crock pot week. I'm getting ready to put ribs in my brand new crock pot for dinner tonight! (my crock pot died after 15 years of service...may it rest in peace)

We also have a leftover night each week, and call it 'Good Sport Supper'. It saves money to use up the leftovers this way. My husband used to dislike leftovers, but I know how to perk them up, and we usually make a special bread or biscuits just for that night to entice everyone to love the leftovers more!!!
