Will someone teach me how to grocery shop for a week or two at a time? I'm so programmed to do it by the month and end up wasting a lot of stuff.

Our stores' weekly ads come out every Wednesday. I look through the ads, make my list and meal planned based off of what's on sale. I do our shopping on Fridays because some stores have extra savings to kick off the weekend. I usually hit 2-3 stores and we are set for 7-10 days.

I made this last week and it was really, really good, so I'm making it again this week to have with my favorite rice and bean salad.

@whenigrowup Do you have a recipe for that while chicken enchilada casserole?

Here you go:

You need: chicken (3 breasts), flour, butter, milk, green salsa, 2 cups shredded Monterrey Jack cheese, and corn tortillas.  

Cook and shred chicken breasts. Cut up (I make wedges) 10-15 corn tortillas.  Make the white sauce (directions below.)  Preheat the oven to 350 and grease/Pam a casserole dish.  

White Sauce:

Put 4 T flour and 4 T butter in a large, microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute.  Add 2 cups milk and stir with whisk until it is smooth.  Microwave 2 mins, stir, then microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between until thickened.  It usually takes two or three of these rounds.  Add green salsa (your favorite--I always use La Costena medium) to taste.  I usually use half to 2/3 of a 16 ounce bottle.  

To layer the casserole, start with a small amount of white sauce on the bottom of the dish.  Then, layer tortillas, chicken, sauce, and about a cup of shredded Monterrey jack cheese.  Repeat, ending with a layer of cheese.  Bake for 30 minutes.
