Menu: February 18, 2012

 Welcome to Menu Plan Monday!

My frugal tips of the week: 

Bake bread over the weekend, slice, place in zipper bags in the fridge, and you have an easy quick snack or breakfast- toast!  -Just add butter and jam ;-)

Check your dates and rotate your foods in your pantry! You don't want anything to go bad, however, many things are still good after the 'best if used by' date. I found older peanut butter that I've worked into my menu this week.
