Menu Plan Monday ~ Saving Money in my Frugal Kitchen ~ October 7, 2024

What’s for Dinner

Monday ~ I put chicken thighs in the slow cooker along with some Italian salad dressing as a marinade and then added taco seasoning later. Bailey loved it! I served this with the last of the cucumber salad, potatoes, and carrots. 

Taco Tuesday ~ We used the rest of the chicken from Monday and had Chicken Tacos. 

Wednesday ~ Salmon Patties, Baked Potatoes, Green Beans with Onions. 

Thursday ~ Grilled Chicken, Pinto Beans, Corn Salsa. 

Friday ~ Grilled Chicken Salads, Apple Salad, Cucumber Salad. It was a salad kind of night. πŸ˜‚ 



Saturday ~ Using a fifty-one cent Crash & Burn pizza crust mix from Martha White, I made this Homemade Pizza. Turkey Pepperoni & Black Olives were toppings. 

Sunday ~ Grilled Chicken Salads after a long day of consignment and grocery shopping.

What’s been on the menu in your home this past week?

  1. Sounds yummy!
    I haven't tried the Italian dressing as a chicken marinade, so thank you for the idea.
    My son made me a list of his favorite meals, so I fixed beef stew, "greasewiches" which are really French dip sandwiches, and tacos/nachos. Kept my husband from clucking over too many chicken dishes. :D
    Hope you have a tasty week.

    1. LOL, Kathy. The French Dip sandwiches and nachos sound great! The Olive Garden Italian dressing is delicious and such a good marinade, but this time I used the Kroger brand. I hope you have a tasty week too.

    1. Thank you! I love both tacos and pizza and don't think I'll every get tired of those. I do make both of them differently since I am low carbing it, but still love them.

  6. I still have not made the salmon croquettes, but there have been meals from freezer, and I am exhausted most of the time. I will do it soon.
