I still have no idea what’s in the freezer.. I find good deals, buy them & they go in the freezer.
One of my goals this week is to defrost the freezer so I have been emptying it & using some of those good deals. Tonight I cooked the last Turkey Breast that I had bought when it was on sale(probably around Easter).
My family does love to eat a Turkey in a Pot. It is a wonderful smell to tempt their tummies all day.
We paired it with potatoes and salad with our first cherry tomatoes from the garden!
My goal right now is to not heat up my house. Every single recipe this week for supper on my meal plan is a crockpot one.
Scalloped Potatoes & Ham
Spaghetti Casserole
It was double kitchen duty by cooking the turkey. Usually I use the leftover turkey to make Turkey Noodle Soup but it is too warm for soup right now.
We have sandwiches on the menu a couple of days this week. So we will have turkey sandwiches with real turkey instead of deli meat. MMMM a little mayo & a garden fresh tomato & lettuce.
Okay now I am getting hungry. Even better is the knowledge that we had two meals for 6 people for under $9. Yes!
How are you keeping your kitchen cool or saving money on meals this week?
I think your idea of not heating up the house is wonderful. I am off to check out your pirate's stew :) Every week I host a recipe swap and I'd love for you to stop by and show off a recipe. Have a good day :)
