Dinner Menus: January 2013

Here are my dinner menus for the month. All meals are based on items already on hand with two exceptions, I will purchase two nice steaks for the dinner date night meal on the 17th and I will need to purchase one 3lb. bag of boneless skinless chicken breasts from Aldi to stretch the chicken already in my deep freezer. My food shopping list is extremely small and consists mostly of perishables and produce.
