Meal Ideas

As a follow up to Frugal Food #8, where I suggest making a list of everything your family likes to eat as an aid for creating a weekly menu, I thought I'd post our list from this little place here. 

So, without further ado, here's a brainstormed list of dinners (mostly main dish, add your own veggies for sides) that are favorites at this little place here.

Beef	Hamburger	Pork
round steak/brown gravy	spaghetti	pork chops
pot roast	goulash	pork steak
stroganoff	lasagna	stir fry
grilled steak	stroganoff	ham
stir fry	meatloaf	scalloped potatoes
beef stew	meatballs	enchiladas
fajitas	burritos	pork pie
	tacos	bbq pork
	husband's delight
	chili
	hamburgers

Venison	Chicken	Other
stew	oven fried chicken	tuna casserole
venison steak	chicken broccoli rice	tuna salad
venison gravy	grilled chicken ceasar	pizza
steak w/brown gravy	chicken fettucine	calzones
stroganoff	roast chicken	pasties
	chicken noodle soup	bean soup
	chicken pot pie	turkey noodle soup
	chicken enchilada	mostaccoli
	chicken fajitas	manicotti
		kielbasa
		roast turkey
		turkey pot pie
		bratwurst/sausage/dogs

There's almost two months of dinners listed above, should I want to make them all once before having any repeats.  By using a large variety of veggies, the meal possibilities are almost endless with just that short list.

(You do eat more than just three or four different veggies, don't you?  You should!  There are dozens of them, and most can be cooked/served in several ways.  There's no reason to eat corn-green beans-peas-potatoes as your only veggies, as I did when I was growing up.)
