Good morning everyone! Hope you aren’t buried in snow like we are 🙂
I took last week off from menu planning, and oh my goodness, what a difference it made in my week! I had to scramble to think of something to make each night, pulling ingredients from my pantry and freezer without any idea what was in them. It was a mess!
Thankfully, I sat down this weekend and made up a proper meal plan for the week so I don’t have any more of that stress 🙂
Monday: Skillet Chicken and Rice, veggies
Tuesday: Pancake Supper at church
Wednesday: Pork Chops, mashed potatoes, veggies
Thursday: Teriyaki Meatballs, rice, veggies
Friday: Breakfast for dinner
Saturday: Chicken soup, bread
Sunday: Eat Out
What’s on your menu for the week? If you need extra inspiration, head over to Org Junkie to check out some more meal plans!

March 3, 2014 at 9:05 amI am the same way If I don’t have a meal plan in place. I go a little crazy and we eat cereal for dinner more than I’d like to admit. Glad to see you’re back to meal planning this week.

March 3, 2014 at 2:39 pmHi Erin! Stopping by from the OrgJunkie linkup. I couldn’t agree more – the weeks I don’t do a meal plan stink! I’m a stress ball driving home from work trying to figure out what I have to stop by the store and get (and it never fails, I always buy something I’ve already got at home but forgot about) and I ALWAYS spend WAY more money when I don’t plan ahead.
Thanks for sharing your family’s menu!

March 3, 2014 at 8:22 pmIt always amazes me what a difference having a meal plan makes in my days. Even if I don’t want what I have planned for that night, I still have choices that are planned out for me.
