Cooking on a Shoestring: Monday Meal Planning

Cooking on a Shoestring: Monday Meal Planning

It’s Monday–time to share our dinner-time game plans for the week!  A little effort with meal planning at the beginning of the week helps me to provide my family with nutritious, budget-friendly meals, and also allows me to get my act together when our family’s headed in several different directions.

Here’s my plan for this week:

Monday:  Breakfast for dinner (swim lesson night…keeping it simple!) 🙂

Tuesday:  Crock Pot Roast Beef, mashed potatoes, green beans

Wednesday: Honey Garlic Chicken, rice, broccoli

Thursday: Homemade soup, probably Broccoli Cheese

Friday:  Hamburgers, oven-baked fries, apple slices, carrots & dip

Saturday: Date night or ordering in with a gift card

Sunday: Thanksgiving dinner #2 (of 5 on our November schedule!)

How about you–what’s on your menu this week?  Do you have any tips for meals on busy nights?  Join the conversation in the comments or on Facebook!
