Posted by Laura on January 11, 2009 · 118 Comments

Howdy! Today I’m feeling a little out of sorts because the internet isn’t working on my lap top (long story) so I’m using my hubby’s computer. Problem is all the recipes I’ve bookmarked to try are on my computer and I can’t access them. So I’m going out a searching….can’t wait to see what I find!

I want to thank all of you lovely ladies that participated last week. I’m quite certain we reached another milestone with well over 400 of you joining in the fun! I was jumping in my seat I was so excited. I’m so happy that you decided to give it a chance and I hope you found it made things easier on you and your family. If you are still finding it hard and thinking you might need a little help, don’t worry because my giveaway today might be just the assistance you need.

I’m so excited to tell you about a new (well new to me anyway) menu planning service called My Family Meal Planner. Lindsay Siebert created My Family Meal Planner to help busy moms get dinner on the table every night without the hassle of having to figure it all out on our own. This is what she has to say:

If you struggle with deciding what to have for dinner, or if you go to the grocery store without having a menu planned for the next week and just throw food in your cart in hopes that you are buying the correct ingredients for your next meal, you need one of my meal planners.

All meals are SIMPLE and EASY and include a crock pot meal EVERY week! I planned all the meals for you, I give you all the recipes you need and I give you your weekly grocery list! I even have Preprinted Magnetic Grocery List Notepads! All you have to do is tear off this weeks list, cross out what you already have, add any other items you may need and head to the store.

Believe me, I don’t like spending much time in my kitchen, so all meals are quick. If there are too many ingredients or ingredients that I have no idea where I would find them, I don’t cook those meals, and I don’t expect you to either. It is so SIMPLE! You will love the time you save and you and your family will love all the yummy meals!

Lindsay has four different planners available for purchase but today she is giving one away to a lucky Menu Plan Monday participant. The winner will be able to select the Family Meal Planner and Notepad that is right for their family. All you have to do to be eligible is link up to your weekly menu in the Mr. Linky below by Tuesday at 9:00 PST. I’ll choose a random winner from the links and announce it shortly after that. Good luck!

Before I forget I also totally want to recommend the Sweet ‘n’ Tangy Pot Roast I made last week. Simple, simple and the gravy is delicious. I love gravy or sauces of any kind really. Yummy!

So let’s get on with my menu shall we:

Monday: Spaghetti

Tuesday: BBQ Chicken Fingers served over spinach salad

Wednesday: Pasta Fagioli with homemade bread (from the bread machine)

Thursday: Leftover buffet

Friday: Homemade Pizza

Saturday: Lemon and Garlic Roast Chicken served with carrots and potatoes

Simple Supper Sunday
