We decided to try something new at our house...weekly meal planning. Some weeks I loosely do this and other week's I totally fail (the last two are prime examples). We think this will be a good way to help us save money and be better prepared through the week, especially with us not having a lot of time together in the evenings with Eric working days and me working nights. Previously I wrote out what I planned for dinner in my Erin Condren Life Planner but I found these fun printables on the internet and decided we would try using it. There's nothing like a paper product or office supply to make me excited to try something new, I'm a dork like that. So I will try to share our plan for the week and then blog about recipes and such throughout the week so you can see how well we did with sticking to it.
So here's the plan...
Monday
Dinner with Eric's Dad
Tuesday
Siracha Honey Lime Chicken
Wednesday
Pork Loin Chops
Fingerling Potatoes
Fried Green Tomatoes
Thursday
Dinner @ the bowling alley
Friday
Spaghetti
Saturday
Crockpot Orange Chicken
White Rice
Sunday
Chicken Fajitas
Spanish Rice
I really need to start to do this and have been telling myself this for about 2 years!
ReplyDeleteI find I'm usually find on Monday/Tuesday but then when Wednesday rolls around I am always LOST on what to make.
let me know how this works for you!
