Dinner for cheap.. Yes please...

Ok I know there are some, ok a lot of people out there that don't have a lot of time on your hands to make a good healthy dinner at home, so we all know what normally happens, take out or fast food! Am I guilty of that? Heck yes! But I try to cook at home to save money and it works, its cheap and it is quick, if you pick the right recipes! I spent less then 50.00 for all of the ingredients for my dinners this week! I will list them here and if you would like the recipe let me know! With my two boys, and my husband that has, at times, no idea as to what time he will be home, I need to cook something that is quick and easy, so tonight i have a new recipe for French Onion Pork Roast... you probably think that holly crap a pork roast will take forever to cook and your right but not if you start it in the morning with your crock-pot! So that salves the quick part now the cheap all it takes is French onion soup, a large sweet onion, some chicken stock, baby carrots, red potatoes, and a pork roast! Now the pork roast was 9.00, and with all the veggies and soup that was around 9.00 as well so for under 20.00 for a family of 4 plus leftovers this is a go to meal for me! Tonight is the taste test so I will post that later! Now for the list of my dinners:

Tonight: French Onion Pork Roast
Tuesday: Biscuits and Gravy with Hash Browns and Eggs
Wednesday: Stuffed Shells with Garlic toast
Thursday: Cheesie Chicken Skillet
Friday: Spaghetti with maple sausage
Saturday: Hamburger Cheesie Skillet
Sunday: Salisbury Steak with Crinkle cut Fries
Monday: Creamy Basil Chicken with Mixed Veggies

This my list for this week... and it may not go as planed because my husband tends to want to go to dinner most Fridays after work! So we'll see but i will definitely let everyone know how dinner turns out tonight!
If any of your out there who ever you are have any good recipes that are quick, easy, and cheap please let me know i am up to try anything!
