Late joining in here, but I want to get a little more on track with this, too. We're expecting our new LO within the next week or two - there are *some* meals put away in the freezer, which will help...but now that I'm getting over the cold I've had this week, I'm hoping the 11th-hour-pre-baby-nesting-energy really hits, 'cause I'd like to get a couple more things in there, besides continuing to get the house in order! :)
Let's see...this week:
Saturday was our little family holiday dinner, so *NOT* cheap, but lots of leftovers. Turkey, four veggie sides (roast parsnip, glaze carrot/brussels, red cabbage, baked sweet potatoes), mashed potatoes, stuffing, HM bread, cranberries, devilled eggs, HM pies for dessert.
Sunday - out at friends for supper (chili and finger foods)
Monday - hot turkey sandwiches and veg, all from leoftovers
Tuesday...I forget? The cold was really raging then - I think I had some WW toast w/ pB and bananas, and DH fended for himself and LO
Weds. - quiche; used up some crudite veggies, previously cooked ham, and LO unused pie crust
Thurs - pumpkin-cranberry french toast and grilled ham
Fri (tomorrow) - will be curried turkey, rice, and peas
Not sure of the plan beyond that, but will continue to use leftovers....might make up another big batch of chili this wkend (will have to buy some ing, but not much) to put more in the freezer, and I have stuff for veggie/beef stew. We'll see what happens.

ETA: Oh yeah - last Thurs or Fri (don't remember which) was our first stab at homemade moo-shu. Truend ot pretty good. :)
