So far this meal planning thing is going pretty well. We've managed to stick pretty close to the plan only switching things up a bit due to time constrains. Overall, meal planning helps take the guess work out of cooking dinner. It also saves us money. 1. I went grocery shopping once for 2 weeks worth of groceries and stayed within a $100 budget. (that includes toiletries, cleaning, and baby stuff.) 2. We're much less tempted to go out when we have a plan, which saves $.
Here is our plan for the next 2 weeks!
Monday - CG - Mac n Cheese
Tuesday - Chicken Picatta, rice, yellow squash
Wednesday - Baked Ziti (spinach, zucchini, carrots)
Thursday - Black Bean Burritos
Friday - Family in Town
Saturday - Family in Town
Sunday - Pizza
Monday - CG - BBQ Pulled Pork
Tuesday - Spaghetti w/meat sauce
Wednesday - Steak, Sweet Potatoes, green beans
Thursday - Chicken Tacos
Friday - Pizza
Saturday - Burritos
Sunday - Chicken cutlets, Smashed Potatoes and Peas

yum! your meals sound good. I am making a meal plan this time before I shop. I used to be so good about it but got way out of the habit!
