Last week went pretty well overall. I did not make the Sweet and Sour Chicken because I forgot to buy the pineapple...and didn't realize it until I went to make it! Gah! Thankfully I had some frozen soup in the freezer and I made a batch of HM Crescent Rolls for the first time. They were awesome! I did half crescent rolls, and the other half Cinnamon Crescent Rolls. Yummy!
I ended up with a final tally of $17.36 for all dinner meals last week and a total of 42 servings (between all meals). So we averaged .41/serving. This is including the Chicken Noodle Soup from the freezer (which was free), and the approx. .75 for the crescent rolls. We obviously ended up with a lot of leftovers, thank goodness for leftover night! That, and DH takes some for lunches.
Off to the menu:
