Well done Laura, it looks simple to use !! A great resource …

Great source!

LOVE IT!

Thanks so much for sharing! This is so simple that I think I may actually be able to use it! I’m forever writing both my grocery list and “menu” on scraps of paper and then can never find the two together.

Wow!
This is perfect. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you. This will come in handy.

Oh Laura, how very generous of you to share! I think it’s wonderful…so wonderful I might even get my disorganized butt back into menu planning. Seriously! :)
Thank you!

Unreal Banana Peel!
Thanks for this!

This is a great idea! It looks wonderful! Can’t wait to use it.

This is great Laura! Thanks for all the work!

Thank you so much. It will definetely come in handy!

Thanks! It looks great! I’ve always been in the habit of writing the recipe source anyway (otherwise I’d completely forget) but I really like the idea of having the grocery list on the same page. That’s sure to help me with the “Ooh, I forgot ______ for Tuesdays meal” items at the store.

Thanks! One question though, is it set up that we can adjust it a little? I plan out every meal (I just have too right now) and would have to squeeze to get it all in… I think. Gonna try when the comp comes back tonight (on borrowedtme right now).

From the look of it I like it….I’m gonna use it this weekend planning for next week!!!! THANKS!

That is really great!! I’ll have to print that out here soon and utilize it. I’m so bad about actually writing down my menu that I actually have to open up my blog to remember what I’m serving each day. :roll:

Thanks! That will be helpful!

Thanks for the download. It will come in handy.

This is a really fantastic template-easy to read and even easier to use!! I have planned weekly meals for quite some time now but always use scrap paper for my grocery list-this is much more organized:) Thank you for sharing!!!

Very nice job!!

Thanks so much! This will be so helpful!

Thank you so much. I have actually printed off 15 copies. I am set for several months on planned meals.

Ahhh. That could work! I’m going to have to try it! Thanks!!!

Thank you so much for this form. I keep saying I’m going to start menu planning and the weeks just keep coming and going with me still running around asking “what in the world can I make for dinner tonight”. Printed out your form and I’m in the process of planning next week this morning. I love the way this is done because the grocery list is right there with the menu! Thanks again!

thanks.

Thank you so much!

Wonderful–thank you so much!

Might I offer a suggestion?

You might divide the grocery list side into “zones” the way your grocery store is set up, from entrance to checkout.

For example:
fresh fruits________________
________________________
___________________________
fresh veggies_____________
______________________________
____________________________
deli counter________________
_______________________________
_______________________________
canned goods and condiments________
_____________________________
____________________________
baking supplies_________________
__________________________
______________________________
breads and cereals______________
_______________________________
_______________________
meat, chicken, or fish___________
__________________________________
_______________________________
freezer items___________________
_______________________________
_________________________________

That way, you could look at each recipe and what you might need to purchase, and write those items under their proper “zone” on your list.

Great menu planning idea!

How about a grocery shopping template? I have a shopping list based roughly on the organization of the store I typically frequent. In addition to general food categories I listed some brands we prefer based on our health needs / eating style. With specific items listed I don’t have to read labels every time and that expedites my shopping. As we think of items needed on our next grocery trip, the item is highlighted on the pre-printed list. The list also makes it easy for my husband to step in and shop when needed.

Wonderful! Thank you!!

Thanks for making this download available. I really love the recipe reference. That will come in handy when I want to refer back to that recipe later. I usually try to save my weekly plans for future ideas but sometimes can’t remember where that recipe was.

I used it when I did my planning/shopping this week, reaqll easy to use, thanks for sharing.

Thanks

I go shopping every other week. And we eat lunch as a family on the weekends. So I added these things to my template.

Thank you for the ideas and recipes.

For the past couple of years we have been in a rut with 45 planned meals. I can’t wait to try out some of the recipes that you have for your family. I see that you strech that dollar with a large family so feeding my family of 5 is in that same frame of mind. Thank you.

I really like this..been trying to come up with one myself. Thanks.

I’ll be using this for next week’s plan! Thanks for making me look good!

Thanks! I love it and will definitely be using this every week.

Thank you for posting this – I just found it while thinking of ways to start organizing my life a little better (child starting school now so it is TIME).
Peace!
