I am big on meal planning. I stress out if I don't know what to make for dinner until the last moment. I don't work well under pressure and if I didn't plan we'd eat out ALL the time.
I usually plan on Monday and do my grocery shopping for the week. I had a few extra minutes today so I planned for next week.
Monday: Chicken Fried Rice, Jello Salad
Tuesday: Beef Stroganoff for Recipe Exchange and Book Group
Wednesday: Chile Verde with Beans and Rice
Thursday: Leftover Night
Friday: Chili and Cornbread for Activity Days Daddy/Daughter Dinner
Saturday: Noodle Bowls
Sunday: Dinner at Friends' House
I'll post recipes and pictures next week as I make things.
I'm just like you Kristen. I have to meal plan too or else we would never eat at home. I try to plan for two weeks though so I only have to go to the store once a week (sometimes more if the basics run low). Sounds like you have some yummy things planned. Can't wait for the recipes.
ReplyDeleteI am excited to hear some of these recipies! I like planning also, otherwise it is breakfast every night for dinner(which we actually don't mind at our house).
ReplyDeleteI need to get better at planning meals! Some weeks I'm great at it, and things just seem to flow better. Other weeks I'm standing in front of the fridge at 5:00 with no clue. This blog is great, it will give me lots of ideas!
