My Frugal Week
What didn't get eaten of our Thanksgiving leftovers were put into the freezer over the weekend to save for another day.
What’s for Dinner
Meatless Monday ~ Spaghetti & Meatballs. I took the meatballs in sauce out of the freezer, which had been saved from another meal. I baked a spaghetti squash and used it as the noodles for the meatballs. We've been trying to stay low carb and steering away from sugar, flour and white pasta and white rice, so spaghetti squash is a good alternative for the pasta.
I served this with steamed carrots for the vegetable and some garlic bread on the side for those who wanted some.
Taco Tuesday ~ Grilled Chicken Taco Salad.
Wednesday ~ Chicken Burrito Bowls.
Thursday ~ Thanksgiving Dinner of Turkey Breast, Dressing, Green Beans with Onions, and Deviled Eggs.
Friday ~ Leftovers
Saturday ~ We had our family get together for Thanksgiving on Saturday. I made Southern Spoonbread and a chocolate cake to bring. Other dishes served were turkey, macaroni and cheese, baked beans, dressing, and several desserts.
Sunday ~ Baked Fish, Roasted Sweet Potatoes, Brussel Sprouts.
What’s been on the menu in your home this past week?

Your meals sound yummy and healthy!
ReplyDeleteWe have had turkey and ham and leftovers for the past 3 days. I think it is time for something different today. ;)
Hope you have a good week.
Thank you, Kathy. Oh yes, we had a lot of T day leftovers too and I decided yesterday we needed something new. LOL
DeleteI hope you have a good week too. :)
Thanksgiving leftovers are in the freezer here, too. They taste so much better later. We like baked fish too. It is such an easy meal. What do you put on yours? I do lemon pepper, lots of garlic and slivers of butter
ReplyDeleteI did Cajun seasoning on the baked fish and added some lemon juice. Bailey really like the Cajun seasoning on fish. I can take it or leave it as I really like the lemon pepper like I do in tuna too. :)
DeleteThanks. I don't think we would like the Cajun seasoning either. I may try Old Bay.
DeleteOh yes! Old Bay would work!
DeletePulling out leftovers from previous meals here. I need some days where cooking is really simply heat and serve. I love spaghetti squash, but Hubby says it tastes too sweet to him.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Leftovers are the best to make life simple and easy. I find some vegetables to be sweet too. Especially the longer I stay away from sugar.
DeleteSince Thanksgiving, it has been Thanksgiving leftovers. Tomorrow, we will find something else to cook and eat for a few days.
ReplyDeleteAlways delicious!
