Hamburgers

Happy Memorial Day! I can't believe I have never published the classic hamburger! The offical start of summer is as good a time as any:-)

I am doing my menu planning with I'm an Organizing Junkie. So, here is my menu this week:



Also, $5 Dinners inspires us all to make low cost dinners. In that spirit, I am taking what Pick N Save has on sale, pairing it with coupons and coming up with the tastiest money saving around! Ground Beef hasn't been under $2 a pound since February:-( I broke down and bought some this week. It was on sale for $2.49/lb. (normally $4.39/lb!) at Pick N Save. Oh, an the buns were on sale for $0.88, along with corn on the cob and watermelon!!! Pick N Save knows how to do the holiday right!! I grabbed a bunch to make my featured recipe today:
