Meal Deals: Easter Brunch Ideas

Here are a few delish recipes from cousin Sue again. One of these would be great for Easter Brunch. Both use a lot of eggs which you can get for Free at Albies this week.

French Bread Breakfast Casserole

INGREDIENTS:
1 loaf French Bread
8 oz. cream cheese
8 eggs
2 1/2 cups milk
6 Tablespoons butter
1/4 cup syrup

DIRECTIONS:
1. Grease a 9x13" baking dish. Cube the french bread into 1/2" cubes. Layer bread cubes and cream cheese cubes.
2. Combine eggs, milk, butter, and syrup. Blend well. Pour over bread in casserole dish and use a spatula to moisten all the bread. Cover with plastic wrap an refrigerate up to 24 hours or bake immediately.
3. Bake uncovered at 325 for 45 minutes or until golden brown on top and center is set. It should not be mushy. Let strand 10 minutes before serving.
4. Drizzle with syrup.

Green Chile Egg Puff

INGREDIENTS:
10 eggs
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pint cottage cheese (can make it without this)
1 lb. Monterey Jack Cheese, shredded
1 lb. Cheddar Cheese, shredded
1/2 cup melted butter
2 small cans diced green chilies  (I don't drain them)

DIRECTIONS:
1. In a bowl combine eggs, flour, baking powder, and salt. Use mixer to stir ingredients. Add cheeses, butter and chilies.
2. Pour into a 9x13" baking dish.
3. Bake at 350 for 40 minutes or until center is set.

I can't decide which one to make. Either of these would be great served with melon or fresh fruit and maybe some Old Orchard Pineapple Orange Juice.

UPDATE: Here's what I made Easter morning. It fed 7 people with leftovers.

And we had our Old Orchard juice too!

Hey all you Twilight Fans

Stephenie Meyer is releasing her new book "The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner" for FREE online from June 5th to July 5th. And $1 from each purchased book will be donated to the Red Cross.

It takes place concurrently with Eclipse (which debuts in theaters June 30th). I am counting down the days! Here's what the website says:
There are two sides to every story...

Fans of The Twilight Saga will be enthralled by this riveting story of Bree Tanner, a character first introduced in Eclipse, and the newborn vampire world she inhabits. In another irresistible combination of danger, mystery, and romance, Stephenie Meyer tells the devastating story of Bree and the newborn army as they prepare to close in on Bella Swan and the Cullens, following their encounter to its unforgettable conclusion.

On June 5th visit http://www.breetanner.com/ to download your copy! It comes out close to my due date. Maybe I can download it and read it at the hospital (after I get my epidural)! Ha ha!

My Albertsons Deals

I wasn't sure if I was going to make it to Albies this week because I had high blood pressure yesterday and had already ventured out to Walgreens (I'm 30 weeks prego). I am happy to report that after shopping this afternoon I checked my blood pressure and it was down to normal range. Apparently shopping does me good! :)

My Walgreens Deals

I gave you some ideas and explain how to do Walgreens deals this week HERE.

Here's what I did yesterday:
I bought a Dentek Flosses @ $2.
I got a $2 RR.

Then in a separate transaction I bought:
1 Dove hair product @ $4
1 Butterfinger egg @ $0.39 (a filler item so I could use my manufacturer coupon and RR)
-$1.50 off (3/28 RP)
-$2 RR from the floss
Total OOP=$0.89 + tax
Then I got a $4 RR

I rotated the above transactions until I had 6 flosses and 6 hair products (don't worry, no one was behind me). I paid $17.34 OOP and I have $24 in RRs. I made $6.66 on these 18 items!

I was able to get paid to buy shampoo and conditioner because of my mulitple coupon inserts from the Sunday paper (I get 6). Read about Idaho Deal Divas newspaper deals HERE.

Meal Deals: Mandarin Chicken Salad

Update: The hubs just asked me to make this for dinner again tonight. Even with snow falling he said he'd grill some more chicken! I guess I'll make soup tomorrow. :)

This is soooo yummy!

Does it bug you that salads you make at home never taste as good as a restaurant's? Not anymore! I told you when I bought Marie's Poppy Seed Dressing HERE that I had an amazing recipe to share. Well, I have finally made the salad I was referring to and it was delish. My mouth is watering looking at the picture!

INGREDIENTS:

1 head of red leaf, green leaf, or romaine lettuce, chopped

3-4 chicken breasts, chopped (grilled is best)

1 can mandarin oranges (often $0.50 at Walgreens)

1-2 avocados, chopped

1 cup slivered almonds (can buy this amount for less in the bulk section at WinCo or use this $1 off Fisher's brand nuts HERE)

1 cup French's fried onions (Use your $0.75 off coupon SS 3/28)

1 container Marie's Poppy Seed dressing

DIRECTIONS:

Combine all ingredients. Toss salad so the dressing is evenly distributed. Serve immediately.

The one I made fed 4 adults and 1 child with a bit leftover. All heads of lettuce are not created equal. Some were tiny and some were huge. I obviously got a huge one. I also used a couple fresh Cutie tangerines instead of mandarin oranges this time to add to the freshness factor. It was a hit!

Scott Products Reward Coupons

When I printed my Scott coupons on coupons.com it also printed a form to mail in for coupon rewards.

Buy 2 different Scott product categories (tissue, paper towels, napkins, wipes and scrub cloths), get $2 in Scott coupons. Buy 3, get $3 in Scott coupons. Buy 4, get $4 in coupons. Coupons will be sent via email. 

Fill out the form and send in with your receipts, and upc codes. Get the form and details HERE.

Print your coupons now

At the end each month make sure you print all the coupons you think you might use at Coupons.com, Smart Source, and Red Plum. They reset and the begining of each month so hurry before you miss some great coupons!

Some of my faves to hopefully double:
$1 off Windex
$0.75 off Jell-O Snacks
$1 off Scott Paper towels
$1 off Scott Bath tissue
$1 off YoPlus

How to Play the Walgreens Game

A note about Walgreens Register Rewards (RR):

A RR is a coupon off your next purchase. Good on any item. The only trick is if you get a Dove RR, you can't use that RR to pay for another Dove transaction (well you can, but a new RR won't print). You can roll RR (buy 1 item that gives a RR, then use that RR to buy a different item that has a RR). It sounds confusing but once you do it, it isn't so bad.

Here is an example of how to "Roll" your RRs. These items are part of the ad that begins tomorrow so you can do these exact transactions tomorrow thru next Saturday!

Transaction #1
Buy 1 Dentek Floss for $2. Pay $2 OOP (out of pocket). Get a $2 RR.

Transaction #2
Buy 1 Dove Hair Product for $4. Use your $2 RR from Dentek Floss. Pay $2 OOP. Get a $4 RR.

Transaction #3
Buy Simply Saline for $7. Use your $4 Dove RR. Use $1 off coupon (SS 1/24). Pay $2 OOP. Get a $7 RR.

Transaction #4
Buy Dentek Floss and Dove for $6. Add another item as a filler to get your total up to $7 (so you can use your Simply Saline $7 RR).
There are lots of items on sale for $1 or so this week (Comet, Swanson Broth, Eggs, etc)
Pay $1 OOP (will vary depending on your "filler" item)
Get a $4 Dove RR and a $2 Dentek RR.

Total OOP for these 4 Transactions (if you have the $1 off Simply Saline coupon $7 without)=$6
Total RRs for next time=$6
Final Price for all these items $1 (and the feeling you get when you get 6 items for $1=Priceless)

A few more things to know:
-A RR usually expires a week or two from the date you get it so you can use it on next week's sale.

-Walgreens has an item to coupon ratio. You can't use more coupons than items you are buying . If you are buying 3 items, you can use up to 3 manufacturer and/or RR coupons. Store coupons do not count towards this ratio.

-You can only buy 1 RR offer per transaction to get the RR. For example: If you buy 2 flosses only 1 RR will print. You can buy different RR items and get both RRs. That is why Trasaction #4 will work, the items are different.

Free Car Seat Check UPDATE

I told you about Free Car Seat Checks HERE. I went to my appointment on Thursday and it was great. I found out that my daughter, although she fits the minimum requirements to be in a booster seat, would be safer back in her 5-point harness for now. Young kids are more at-risk for internal bleeding, etc. even in low-speed crashes. I would rather be safe than sorry so for now we are switching back.  We haven't bought our little guy's seat yet so I plan on going again to have his seat properly installed. The ladies were great. They also gave me advice on which seat to buy. Set your appointment today! Go HERE to set it up at St. Luke's or HERE to find an event near you.

PS-When you turn in at the stoplight, go to the back,turn right and pass the ER entrance, then turn right. Look for a big bright orange sign!

Salad Dressing Deal at Walmart

I got Hidden Valley Farmhouse Originals Salad Dressing for $0.54 each using my $2 off coupon from last week's (3/14) SS coupon insert. Sometimes I pour salad dressing over chicken and bake it in the oven.

These are the new flavors available:
Farmhouse Originals Roasted Onion Parmesan. Try this dressing on your green salads as well as in these other delicious dishes: pasta salad, potato salad and panini sandwiches.

Farmhouse Originals Hickory Bacon and Onion. Enjoy the tongue-tingling taste of hickory smoked bacon with a hint of roasted onion. From slaws to your favorite greens, it brings home the flavors you love.

Farmhouse Originals Garden Tomato & Bacon. Sweet, smoky and pleasingly tangy, this delectable dressing has a rustic twist. Try it on wedges of iceberg lettuce, as a dip for your favorite veggies, or in a delicious three bean salad.

Farmhouse Originals Creamy Parmesan. Mouth-watering Parmesan blends perfectly with tangy buttermilk for a simply delicious homestyle topping for salads and veggies.

K-Mart Diaper Deal Update

Apparently K-Mart is no longer accepting the $10 off $20 coupon. That is what drives me nuts about K-Mart, things are always complicated there. They have double coupons coming up in April but between their usually annoyed and skeptical cashiers, and other difficulties, it makes me not even want to bother. If you were lucky enough to do the deal already, yeah!

Boo K-Mart.

Chuck E Cheese Behavior Chart

Chuck E. Cheese sent me this great Behavior Chart.

Download it HERE, print it off and

have your kiddos fill it out for 2 weeks, then take it in for 10 free tokens!
I just read the fine print and it says pizza purchase required.
HERE are some more coupons that include a pizza.

Borders New Moon Release Party

Borders is having a New Moon Release Party at 10 pm. They also sent me a 30% off coupon. I'll stay up on premiere night to see the movie but to get the movie, I'll be sleeping away. The party sounds pretty fun! I will be getting my mine tomorrow for sure! HERE is a coupon (you have to buy another movie too to get $5 off or 2 movies for $10 off.)

Also, if you are a teacher or know a teacher, they have a Educator Appreciation event. I can forward the email to get 30% off almost everything! March 19-27th.

Diaper Deal at K-Mart

K-Mart is no longer accepting the $10 off coupon. Still print your $3 off Huggies!

Coupons.com has a $3 off Huggies coupon HERE (print 2 per computer)
Print even if you don't plan on going to K-Mart because the coupon is usually only $2 off.
Print THIS $10 off a $20 purchase at K-Mart

And head on over to KMart and buy 2 packs of Huggies @ $9.99
Add a filler item (cheap item to get you over $20)
Use your $10 off coupon
Use 2 $3 off coupons
=$4 for 2 packs (plus filller item)
That's only $2 a pack. You may get a $3 catalina too!

Let me know if you try this deal!

Treat Deals: Fruity or Chocolate Marshmallow Treats

We all have had Rice Krispy Treats but we got some Fruity Pebbles and Cocoa Pebbles to make Fruity and Chocolate Marshmallow Treats. I was going to use the Rice Krispy recipe but saw Post's recipe right on the box!

All you need is:
1/4 cup butter (1/2 stick)  You can get 1 lb. for $1.67 at Fred Meyer this week. The price for 1/2 stick is only $0.21!
1 bag marshmallows (less than $1)
6-8 cups of Fruity Pebbles, Cocoa Pebbles, Rice Crispies, Cupcake Pebbles, whatever! FREE at Albies this week!

Just melt the butter and marshmallows over medium heat. Add the cereal and spread into a greased 9x13" pan. Use foil for easy clean up!

It's a pretty good deal at less than $1.50!

Make it for Family Night or when you have kiddos over for a fun treat!

My Albertsons Post Deal

If you saw this post before I edited it it looked funny because I did it from my phone and couldn't figure out how to type here. I will have to have the hubs figure it out for me! Anyway, I wanted to let you know that Cocoa Pebbles and Cupcake Pebbles are also included in the sale.

This is what I got: 36 boxes!
(I am going to share with family. Our family of 3 1/2will not need this much.)
I forgot to get Raisin Bran so I will be going back.

This is $57.24 worth of cereal at the sale price for FREE!
(And we all know $1.59 is a low price for cereal before coupons!)
Gotta love Free!

If you want the breakdown go HERE.
Mmm. I'm hungry...I think I'll have some cereal for a snack!
