Menu Plan Monday

**This is just a plan and plans have the ability to change at the cook's discretion! Last week's menus seemed to go off without too much changing around! This week is planned with what I have on hand! No going to the grocery store this week other than for milk, I don't even need fruit as I have grapes, bananas, apples(from our orchard trip two weeks ago) and then canned fruit(if needed). With all the talk about cost for food subsequently for meals, I decided this week to figure out the cost for the whole meal that I feed my family of 7! The amount is posted after the meal. Lunches listed below are for the kids and I, dh's lunches are not included as he normally will just take what leftovers are available. A special thanks to Organizing Junkie for hosting Menu Plan Monday!**
