It’s STILL a good menu plan six months later! Struggling with this week’s menu planning, so I’m just borrowing yours (ALL of it!)

Thanks K !!

I know we definitely have to make plans for meals or 1) we bicker for an hour every evening about who has to pick what’s for dinner and what we’re going to make 2) we end up at the grocery store for everything that’s not a cabinet staple. It gets old.

We’ve definitely been happier with planned meals, and it really does save money!

I love chicken stir fry! I too put it in my weekly menu plan! I’m glad to hear that I am not the only once struggling to keep up with even having a weekly menu.

I’ve been loving the pioneer woman’s blog lately and saw you have her enchiladas on your menu.

As for wagons, my worst is when I’m motivated over the weekend, menu plan and grocery shop, then some event happens mid week (or I simply lose motivation) and dont make a dish… days slip by, and all of a sudden my green beans are slimy and food has gone bad. Argh! Hate that. Hope your cooking went well this week!

What a great recipe! I recently bought several bell peppers from the grocery and I have been looking for something to do with them. I will definitely be making this for dinner over the weekend!

I always admire your meal planning efforts. I can never get through more than 3-4 days planned at a time before our schedules change, my mood changes, the weather changes—something eventually happens that throws my meal planning off kilter and suddenly dinners are up for grabs. I’ve learned to roll with it though—all things for a reason. Your stir-fry looks yummy though, love the orange & yellow presented in this meal!

I am so proud of you for even thinking of planing for a week! The thought never occured to me. I get inspired in the morning as to what protein I want to cook that day and go from there... .-= Nanan´s last blog ..Sweet peas and potatoes with a little roux. =-.

All your meals for the week look fabulous! Meal planning is my forte. When I shopped at the commisary I planned meals for a month. I had to make good use of my freezer. For some reason my high school students do not understand the concept. Thanks for sharing ! .-= The Teacher Cooks´s last blog ..Sugar Cookies for Your Valentine =-.

Ok so you aren’t the only one that does this…but I thought I was! So thanks for making me feel part of a group. I like to call it Mom ADD, you know where your brain is so into one thing, like menu planning, and then, just like that, it flips to something totally off topic, like laundry. Wouldn’t it be fun to trace the brain waves that take you from delicious recipes to dirty undies.

Love the stir-fry recipe! Thanks!

Looks amazing! I haven’t made a stir fry in awhile. I usually do them with tons and tons of veggies.

I have things come up and ruin plans all the time, so I only plan 3 days at a time. That way, if something does come up, I don’t have any ingredients go bad! This looks like a great weeknight meal.

Oh yeah, been there done that for sure! Something that really slapped me in the face recently was when I decided to go back through three months of bank statements and itemize everything that we spent. I was SHOCKED at the amount of money I spent on groceries alone, simply because I wasn’t planning. I’ve been itemizing everything this month and have everything budgeted out. I am happy to say that I’m on track on my budget so far and if it stays on track I will have saved approximately $600! So yeah, menu planning rocks

Menu planning… I’m not naturally organised, but I’m getting there! And for some reason I am really very erratic over evening meals. I can buy a great big grocery shop for the fortnight but do i know when I’ll actually make everything? Not at all, and I always end up going through my cupboards saying ‘can’t make that, its frozen, can’t make that, the peppers have gone dodgy…’ I think this is something I should really take upon myself to develop the will for! It’ll probably make life a great deal easier for myself!

Gorgeous stir fry, looking forward to the Adopt A Blogger updates.
