January Menu Plan

Since committing to the Eat From The Pantry challenge, I have actually gotten excited about seeing how low we can go with our grocery budget this month. We have several things already prepared in our freezer and I have ingredients on hand to feed us healthy and flavorful meals all month. I will admit, yes, there's not as much variety as some months, but it's a challenge folks! We're out of town 4 days this month and will continue our weekly dinners at my parent's house also.

Dinners:

• Chili and cornbread (2 times) - freezer
• Beef stew with homemade bread - freezer
• Chicken and corn chili with homemade tortilla strips (2 times) - freezer
• Pork Chops with Raspberry Sauce, rice, broccoli
• Creamy Ham Casserole, corn
• Chicken & gravy over rice, corn
• Chicken a la king over puff pastry, broccoli
• BBQ pork (Boston butt), homemade mac and cheese, green beans
• Pulled pork sandwiches, fries, coleslaw
