Eat From The Pantry Challenge - my plan

I haven't been very good about posting about the Eat From The Pantry Challenge so I thought it would be good to update.  It is going great here!  We have had plenty to eat so far, and I don't even feel like we've had to ration ourselves or anything.  Actually I feel so much lighter just knowing that we're not spending as much money!  This has made me want to be even more frugal and even tighter with our grocery budget.  So that will be challenge # 2, I guess.  I'm working on a new plan for our budget for next month.

I've been working on a list of meals for the rest of this month from the food in our pantry, fridge, and freezer.  Here's what I'm planning on for the next few weeks.
