Anything from mundane to magical - let us know what you’re eating this week!

I prepped and froze a bunch of smash burger patties last week so we’ll be having burgers at some point. I like bacon and blue cheese on mine. Might do some tater tots on the side.

The world's plainest, most comforting food ever: Grilled cheese.

I also plan on making macaroni with ground turkey in it mixed with mushroom soup.

Basically we're a little frugal this week :P

I wanna try out a macaroni like that. Sounds delicious and like you could do it in one pot with minimal cleanup.

Oh I love mushroom mac and cheese (mac and cheese made with canned condensed cream of mushroom soup). My go to cheap meal used to be eggs baked in frozen diced potatoes with cheese but the price of eggs went up so much.

Nothing wrong with that. Some of my favorite meals are struggle meals. Are you going to do tomato soup with the grilled cheese?

That second meal I call lazy man's beef stroganoff. I do use ground beef vs turkey tho.

Not too sure if I have tomato soup but I Do have a kinda gross (in that "this is probably not healthy for me, im eating it anyway" way) can of spaghetti that is calling my name, so thank you for the idea!

Frugal is always good! You mix the mushroom soup in with the macaroni? I’ve never thought of that but it sounds like it would be tasty.

Yep! The mushroom soup acts as a nice little cheese sauce replacement that when combined with a ground meat, always tastes yummy. I could be using cheese sauce, but I chose to opt for sliced cheese instead of regular cheese this week.
