This week's meal plan was incredibly uninspired, which is a little ridiculous. I read quite a few cooking blogs and have a TON of food-related pins on Pinterest. Unfortunately, when I started checking out my starred items in my Google Reader and my pins...a whole lot of them were desserts. Not helpful when trying to decide on dinner foods!
I wrote up my grocery list and, after looking at the grocery ads, decided that I wanted to go to Kroger, Meijer, and Aldi. I thought I would buy the least at Aldi, so I headed there before lunch. I'm glad I took the whole list because I bought everything for all of our meals, plus some snacks, and supplies for salads for myself this week. I've not bought much from Aldi before, so this is an experiment of sorts of quality and taste. I'll still run to Kroger for Goldfish and Meijer for apples ($0.49/lb), but both are on sale throughout the week, so it doesn't have to be today.
Tacos
Johnny Marzetti (for my cooking club)
Hot dogs and Mac & Cheese
Baked Chicken Nuggets and Baked Red Potato Fries
Roasted Veggie Pizza
Smoked Sausage, Cabbage, and Red Potatoes (and old family favorite)
(I have no idea which nights we'll eat which meals, but these are our choices)
We’re not going anywhere.

I really need to check Aldi Out...
I really like Aldi, but I always have trouble getting there because they're only open until 8pm. I don't know how much you and Chris drink, but their wine is cheap and pretty good!
Your menu looks delicious to me! :)
You'll have to let me know how your Aldi experiment goes this week. There's one pretty close to me, but sort of inconveniently located, so I don't usually shop there. I need to go one day just to check it out.
