Menu planning has become even more important to me lately as I enter a pricey time of the year for us. I have Josh turning eleven next week, Josiah's birthday follows in mid October, then the joy (and expense) of Christmas means there's no better time to tighten the purse strings.
I think that's one of the biggest benefits of menu planning - the ability to make an easy change and free up some cash when needed. I'll admit, I've been completely loosey goosey with our budget the past six months and I can tell it. We're back on the menu plan and cash envelopes. It's a good thing.
That being said, here's this week's menu:
Monday: Steak hoagies, roasted potatoes, peaches
Tuesday: BBQ chicken, baked sweet potato, corn.
Wednesday: Crock pot lasagna, salad
Thursday: Easy taco salad
Friday: Co-op pizza party - I'm taking brownies.
Saturday: Keilbasa & potatoes, applesauce
Sunday: General Tso's
So what's good at your place this week?
