62 weeks now I have been menu planning, it has become such a natural part of my week, I can’t imagine going back to not knowing what I am going to cook each week. Each Saturday or Sunday morning I spend about 30 minutes (maybe not this long) preparing my menu for the week, deciding on what new recipes I am going to try and what family favorites we will eat.
Then I create my grocery list for the week and I am done, that’s it. No more worrying what I am going to fix or if we have the ingredients to make it. It’s simple and done. Of course my menu plan is flexible and I can simply push back recipes if we didn’t make them that week or something came up. I also like to make a few large dinners that we can eat more than once or for leftovers for lunch the next day. I just love leftovers.
I have a few new changes coming to my blog over the next month I am going to start hosting more sponsored giveaways. This means I was given a product to try and then blog about and offer a product to giveaway on my blog, so please be sure to stop by starting tomorrow and enter in the giveaway.
