January 2013 Menu

Sorry I'm late!  I didn't get this done until a few days ago...Winter break flew by and I just ran out of time!  Seems like there is never enough, is there?  You may notice that we have gone back to eating out on Friday nights.  I know that we shouldn't and I know that we would save a decent chunk of change if we didn't...but I'm so tired on Friday nights after a long week and the last thing I want to do is cook.  So...we will go out but keep things on the cheap-side...I see lots of Costco hot dogs in our future!  And this we will will do our grocery shopping for the weekend and next week while we are out and about.

Anyway...here is what will be prepped and consumed in the Bussan house this month!  I usually add a side of veggies with every meal and fruit for dessert.  I hope you find something on here for your family!

Again...I try to put links to recipes where I can. I finally figured out bit.ly so all the links look weird and short but will get you to the recipes.

I have shopped on Sunday afternoons in the past but I am going to try to shop on Friday nights this month.  The problem with Sunday's is that I tend to make bigger meals and use the slow Cooker on the weekends and I never remember to get the ingredients before the start of the weekend and I hate shopping on Sunday for the following weekends because then the ingredients aren't as fresh.  I know, first-world problem, right?
