Roasted Eggplant with Za'Atar Pizza

We are so excited to get back to cooking this month in the new kitchen.  We are nearly done and I promise to share it with you as soon as possible!  There are a couple of considerations headed into this months menus... now that I don't have my weekly income, we will be eating on a very tight budget.  We are going to be aiming to spend no more than $50 on groceries.  We've done it before and it feels great to find ways to save money at the store.  The other consideration is that our cookbooks are still packed up in a box in the garage with the majority of our kitchen stuff so this menu consists of recipes already on the blog/online!  Since I'm posting these a little late there's only three weeks of menus but we will be back in full cooking mode by the end of the month and I promise to post fantastic November menus!

  2. Ha! Great timing, I was JUST checking to see if you’d posted a recent menu. For some reason I am craving tuna casserole….is that weird?! Have you ever made it with egg noodles?

  4. I made “Kacie’s Tuna Casserole” last night, and think it should be re-named “Crack Casserole”. IT’S SO GOOD! Definitely NOT the old school grandma version that I remember….the flavor is amped up and I love the parmesan. Pretty sure that Matt ate half the pan (that couldn’t have been me….)
