Meal #1
1.5 pounds of ham slices
2.5 pounds of sweet potatoes
green beans

I would heat the ham in a skillet. Bake the sweet potatoes in the oven and use canned green beans. Serve sweet potatoes with brown sugar, cinnamon and butter. Yummm! I know not much of a recipe but this would be a easy dinner and economical too!

Meal #2
Since chicken is on sale I would highly recommend you make my Chicken Tortilla Soup

Meal #3
Another option for chicken would be this recipe for Chicken and Gravy with Homemade Noodles from Cooking During Stolen Moments.


Come back next week and see what meals I can find!

So I had to make the lo mein instead of the meatloaf yesterday. I kind of did my own thing but with help from this Chicken Chow Mein recipe and this Vegetable Lo Mein recipe. First I boiled the noodles. Then fried them in the skillet in a bit of oil. This really helped them not stick together. And I'm sure gives it more flavor.
