Menu Planning Monday

It is the beginning of a new week- time to plan out what we will eat! 

We started doing a weekly menu plan in January, and it has really helped our week go smoother!  We love comming home from a long day at work knowing what we will make (or already having something in the crock pot).

Crystal @ Money Saving Mom is doing a series this month called 31 Days to a Better Grocery Shopping Budget.  One of her posts is about Menu Planning.  If you are looking for more reasons why or ways to plan a weekly or monthly menu, check out her post to see what others have to say.

Here is our plan for this week:

Monday: Leftover Roast & Mashed Potatoes

Tuesday: Sandwiches, apples, & friendship bread
Lunch for dinner!

Wednesday: BBQ Chicken & Baked Potatoes
We were going to have this last week- but never did

Thursday: Lasagna (From the Freezer)
We were also going to eat this last week- yup, plans are made to change right?

Friday: Salmon & Rice

Saturday: Hawian Haystacks

Sunday: Beef Stew
