Weekly Menu


So I have been trying my best to create a weekly menu, then do my grocery shopping based on that. I'm not so great at making decisions (and it's getting worse), so deciding what to cook each night for dinner is a disaster, that usually ends in cereal, spaghetti, or scrambled eggs. Who knew that there were so many blogs devoted to weekly menu planning? Here are a few I like, plus a few other food websites.


Menus For Moms - yeah not a mom, but that's ok

I'm an Organizing Junkie- Menu Plan Monday. Can't commit to have this ready every Monday but this blog has the most links to other blogs participating.


Rachel Ray - Weekly Roundup

AllRecipes- favorite website of all time.

So I can't promise it will be on that same day each week, but my goal is to do a weekly menu. As much as I can I'll link to the recipes from a website or even our own family recipes as I get them entered into MacGourmet (more on this in another post). So here is my first one.

Wednesday - Pizza, I'm doing the grocery shopping tonight, via Peapod!!


Friday - during the day will freeze broccoli soup, bought too much at the market this week. Then out to eat cause I don't cook on Friday night!

Saturday - Breakfast is always big on Sat, so I'll plan for that and maybe cook dinner, but most likely go out.

Sunday- Chili- Mom T's recipe. I hate the expression MIL for mother in law, so I will refer to Robin as Mom T. I'll try to get this recipe typed up soon and share.

Monday - Meatloaf with mashed potatoes and carrots and this cider gravy

Tuesday - Mushroom Orzo with chicken maybe

Ok so we'll see if this really happens as planned.
