Deal of the week: go to http://www.checkmyrebate.com/ and go under the “coors” rebates, find the rebate for when you purchase a 20.00 gift card you get a 10.00 rebate. Buy a grocery card for either Lowes or Teeter. Save your receipt. Print out the coors rebate details page. Put your name,address, date of birth (they want to make sure you are over 21) and SIGN IT and date it. Make copy for your own records. Send off. Use the 20 gift card on your groceries. A Double play it is called because you are getting 20 worth of groceries for 10 and you will get more than that because you are using coupons on top of that. It would be a triple play if you could buy something else you have a rebate for like the Bud seafood offer or the nugget rebate because then you are getting more money back than the original 10 from the gift card purchase. That is how you can turn a 20.00 cart of groceries into a 5.00 or free deal. Did I lose anyone? Sometimes my math gets me lost and I have to figure out my deals several times to get the best scenario.





Good coupons from http://www.afullcup.com/ are listed by store below.


Target ones: remember don’t use at Bridford location
75 off 10oz kelloggs cereal
75 off kraft cheese
75 off daisy sour cream
50 off stove top


Food Lion ones:
Save 1.00 on produce with 6 campbells products
Free avocado
2 off 5 on produce
2 off 5 in bakery (some are saying that the deli comes under bakery and they are getting 2 off 5 when they buy deli meat)




Possible meals from this week’s deals (I am simple, have picky kids and my meals are simple right now given that I am like the only one who eats them so sorry if I offend the good cooks out there……..)


Baked ziti or spaghetti
Easy chicken parmesan
Garlic shrimp and pasta
Crock pot BBQ chicken
Breakfast for dinner-pancakes or waffles
Chili
Potato Soup
Layered Enchilada Bake








Baked ziti or penne pasta:
I take one box of pasta and dump it into a 9x13 baking dish. I dumped one jar of pasta sauce (I like the cheese ones) into the dish. I then completely fill the sauce jar with water and then dump that into the dish too. Stir everything to make even consistency. Cover with foil. Bake at 375 for 30 min. Uncover and stir to make sure the noodles are tender. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese or Italian pkg cheese on top and cook another 5 min approx or until cheese is melted. Serve with salad and the garlic bread.





Easy Parmesan Chicken:
1 jar spag sauce
6 Tbsp grated parm cheese
6 small boneless breasts (1.5 lbs)
1.5 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
Preheat to 375. Pour sauce into 9x13 baking dish. Stir in 4 Tbsp (=1/4 cup) parm cheese. Add chicken, turning over to coat both sides. Cover with foil. Bake 30 min . Uncover. Top with mozzarella cheese and remaining 2 Tbsp of parm cheese and continue baking 5 min or until the cheese is melted. Serve over/with noodles (my kids won’t eat the chix) the garlic bread, or bread made from Teeter cheap bakery bread, vegs, and or salad.





Garlic Shrimp and pasta:
Boil or steam the shrimp until pink. Shell. Lightly sautee in crushed or minced garlic and butter and serve over linguine or fettuccine noodles.
I would serve with broc spears?





Crock pot BBQ chicken:
Boil 1-2 lbs chick breasts (either the bone in or boneless). I am going to boil the ones with bones and save the broth water to make rice with so I am kinda tricking my kids with the rice that has something nutritional in it if you can call broth that. Back to meal. Pull the meat from the bone and shred or just shred your breast. Dump into the crock pot with a bottle of BBQ sauce. Slow cook for 5-6 hours. Serve on rolls (I like the big teeter ones). Serve with beans or fries or cole slaw, or fruit or applesauce.





Breakfast for dinner:
I like to eat pancakes on Friday nights or on the weekend mornings. Can’t beat a dinner that costs under 1.00 if you get pancake mix and syrup at Lowes!!





Chili (this is my hodge podge recipe—there are others out there like it on http://www.allrecipes.com/)
Brown a 1-2lb of ground beef and drain off grease. (I use more like 1.5-2 because hubbie is a meat and potatoes kind of guy and he wants spoons of meat and not spoons of beans.) Dump into crock pot . Add 2 cans tomato soup, 1 or 2 cans of rinsed kidney beans, 1 can of chili beans ( I do not rinse these), 2 cans of rotel chili tomatoes and water until at consistency you like your chili. Taste. Add red pepper or chili powder to your desired heat. I have thrown in a can of corn to give texture. I have put more cans of tomato soup in too when it looked too “little”. You can do this on the stove top but I would bring to boil, turn down and let simmer until the beans were good and tender. Serve with grilled cheese or hoagies.





Potato Soup from Vicky Hey:
Good to use with all the betty crocker box mash potatoes you might have gotten on sale the week before Thanksgiving at either Teeter or Lowes.
One box of Betty Crocker mashed potatoes
¾ cup of broth
1 Tbsp of butter or margarine
1Tbsp of all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon of salt
Dash pepper
1 cup milk or light cream
Make 2 pouches (2 pouches in 1 box) of mashed potatoes as listed on box. In a med saucepan melt butter. Stir in flour, salt, and pepper. Add milk all at once. Cook and stir till slightly thickened and bubbly. Cook 1 minute more. Stir in potato mixture and ¾ cup broth. Cook and stir till heated through. If necessary, stir in additional milk to make of desired consistency. Season to taste. You can add bacon or ham, shredded cheddar and green onions to put on top of soup





Layered Enchilada Bake:
1 lb ground beef
1 large onion, chopped
2 cups thick salsa
1 can black beans, rinsed/drained
¼ cup Italian dressing (zesty if have it already but plain is fine)
2 Tbsp taco seasoning mix (from the pouch)
6 flour tortillas 8 inch
1 cup sour cream
1 8 oz pkg of Mexican shredded cheese
Line 9x13 baking dish with foil with ends extending over sides of dish. Set aside. Brown meat with onions in skillet on med-hi heat. Drain grease. Add salsa, beans, dressing, and taco seasoning mix and mix well. Arrange 3 tortillas in a single layer on bottom of prepared baking dish. Cover with layers of half each of meat mixture, sour cream and cheese. Repeat all layers. Cover with foil. Bake at 400 for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 10 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted. Let stand 5 minutes before cutting to serve. Serve with refried beans, salad, Spanish rice made with chicken broth or white rice and a can of rotel thrown in to make homemade Spanish rice.
