I also had more meal ideas from what I have on hand, so I planned dinners until next week Wednesday.

  2. Thanks Rona!
    How do you cook your pinto beans? I just do mine in the crockpot. My husband likes to roll them up with rice on tortillas, but I like them over rice with onions, tomatoes, cheese, sometimes olive oil or sour cream, etc. A friend gave me this idea long ago, and it is so healthy and frugal too!!
