January Menu Plan

I LOVE to cook. When I was young I thought about being a chef. Today one of my favorite things to do is watch Food Network, the next Food Network Star, and Top Chef. Im a chef to the Combs' boys!

Here is my plan for the month. The ingredients out to the side are just my personal notes of things I need at the grocery store. I have just listed main meals on here, not side items. Maybe I'll get "that" organized some day. I spent the weekend cleaning out both of my freezers and one cabinet. I want to use up ingredients this month with what we have. I will shop good sales and of course have a plan for HT super doubles this week. If I don't need it now, however, I want to only buy those things that are very, very cheap. Im hoping to post my savings each week when I shop as well. Im going to take inventory of my freezers and keep that information posted/updated as well.
Please feel free to comment. Post a recipe you think we would like to try. Post a deal or two if you know of one as well!

Taco Soup - I'm making a double batch in my big crockpot today. I'll freeze it in bags. This will be a good meal or two or three for busy nights!
