Frugal Menus: An Alison Example

There seems to be a significant issue in menu-planning, so to expand on this I'd like to share with you all an example of a one week menu (scroll down). Now, I'm only including three main meals--of course, there are little additions, such as snacks (homemade goodies, fruits, etc.). Please feel free to ask questions, and since this is a work in progress for me, I welcome all constructive criticism!




Sunday
    1. Cereal, fruit, and coffee
    2. Cheese/onion/lettuce sandwich, chips, and juice
    3. Pasta w/tomato sauce, spinach, and milk
Monday
    1. Muffin, scrambled tofu, and coffee
    2. Pasta salad, yogurt, and juice
    3. Hot dogs w/saurkraut on whole wheat bread, baked beans, and milk


Tuesday
    1. Muffin, yogurt, and coffee
    2. Chips and baby carrots w/hummus, milk and cookies
    3. Rice, Chinese veggies, chickenless nuggets, and seltzer
Wednesday
    1. Cereal, pineapple, and coffee
    2. Hummus sandwiches w/lettuce, onion and tomato and iced tea
    3. Ziti and cannolini bean sauce, mixed vegetables, and milk
Thursday
    1. Muffin, scrambled tofu, and coffee
    2. Cheese/onion/lettuce/tomato toasted sandwich and juice
    3. Nachos w/beans, cheese, salsa, guacamole, sour cream and milk
Friday
    1. Cereal, fruit, and coffee
    2. Tofu salad sandwich and iced tea
    3. Spaghetti w/tomato sauce, crumbles, and milk
Saturday
    1. Muffin, yogurt, and coffee
    2. Hummus sandwich w/lettuce, onion and tomato and juice
    3. Burgers, mashed potatoes w/gravy, broccoli, and milk
