What’s on your menu?
A couple of weeks ago I posted about how every Sunday night I plan my menus for the week. A wise friend of mine, who would like to start menu planning, suggested that I host “Menu Plan Monday”. I hesitated not knowing if this would be beneficial to anyone or not but after reading Everyday Mommy’s post I think this may be a great way to provide some assistance. So on Monday I’m going to post my menu plan for the week and at the bottom of my post I will include a Mr. Linky. Those who want to join in please leave the link to your Menu Plan post. I know there are a lot of Mom’s out there who do menu planning for the week and I think this could be a great opportunity for us to encourage and support other Mom’s who want to do the same. I will see how it goes before deciding whether or not to do it every week.
Will you join me on Monday?
I menu plan, but only about every 2 weeks right before I go to the grocery store. One thing that helps me is that I have a list of all of the things I make (not including the recipes, I keep those in my recipe box) so that I can look over it easily to see what I want to make. I used to forget about certain dishes a lot, but the list helps me to remember all of the different things that I can make. Then I can find the recipe and write down all of the ingredients that I need.
I’ll be looking for your menu planning post!!
Wow I love the idea…must have been some smart cookie who gave it to you!!
I’ll join in :) I love menu planning but need flexibility in case of rain (most of my summer meals are BBQed)
Looking forward to it!

Can’t wait to see your menu plan. I’m trying to prove Scott wrong, but not doing very well.
You should do an “Ask Laura” post with giving advice on organizing!!
Have a great day!!
I’ll join too, I’m really bad at menu planning, because then I don’t want to eat what I’ve planned for the week :) How do you handle that?
I think this is a wonderful idea. I love menu-planning and I can’t wait to see what others will do!
I LOVVVVVVVVVE MENU PLANNING. I PLAN FOR 2 WEEKS AT A TIME. IT HELPS ME TO NOT BE STRESSED AT 4PM ON WHAT I’M COOKING THAT NIGHT. I LOVE IT….IT WILL HELP SO MANY WOMEN. I WILL LOOK FOR IT. I CANT WAIT.
