Good morning Lords and Ladies! Apparently I’m craving Mexican food this week because almost all of the recipes have a southwestern flair. I think it’s just that I have a bag of black beans that need cooked up and we LOVE eating them. Plus I also LOVE southwestern foods in the fall. You’ll also notice lots of soups and crock pot recipes creeping back into the menu plan as the fall weather comes our direction and Colts Football season begins. We have soup almost every Sunday throughout the entire fall.

Hopefully our menu plan will spark some ideas for your own plan. One of the very best ways to save money and eat more healthfully is to have a specific plan when it comes to your meals. Change your world (and your waistline) one penny at a time!
