Common Cuisine |

OK, this one is for my local friends. I may make a Kroger one too, sometime, but I happen to know that one special friend most in need of shopping inspiration only shops at this store. So this list is for her, and you get to read it!

I came up with a few simple meal ideas that make good use of the sales for this week. Items with a * are on sale this week through the end of next Tuesday. You have to spend at least $10 in addition to all those that are 5 for $5 mix-n-match. This list is especially for a pregnant mommy needing to restrict her salt intake , but the last one is one of the HEB special deals of the week that could keep for a few weeks, or feed the hubs for a few days when you’re not hungry.
