Other than the obvious frozen pizza, turkey sandwiches, and PB&J, main dishes for the week will be chili, chicken noodle soup, baked cheez-it chicken, stir fry, BLT's, and tacos (I have several pounds of frozen ground beef). I try to keep a decently stocked kitchen so we already have ingredients for salads, spaghetti & meatballs, Manwich, tuna & noodles, fish sticks & french fries, side dishes of noodles & rice, and a ton of canned & frozen veggies.

Dare you to post your weekly grocery list so we can all compare. *winks*
