30 Days of Dinners: Another Month of Meal Planning

February 10, 2015

Last month, I decided to meal plan for the entire month ahead of time & it was awesome.  (You can view last month’s post here, 31 Days of Dinners!)  30 days of meals planned out makes life easier!
 
No more stress every weekend about what we were going to eat the following week.  No more scouring Pinterest & cookbooks to figure out the standard question, “What’s for Dinner?”.  
 
Instead, I just pulled out my menu plan & created the grocery list for the week from what was on the menu.  It definitely saved me time & energy to plan a full month of meal ideas ahead of time.  
 
Today, I am sharing another month of ideas with you all.  Many of these are tried-and-true favorites, but I love trying new recipes so I have a few new ones to try out!  
 
Most of these recipes don’t require a lot of prep or a large chunk of time to cook and are relatively kid-friendly meals that my whole family will eat. You can modify as needed based on what is in your pantry, what is on sale at the store, & what you have planned for the week but no more searching cookbooks & Pinterest every night for something to make for dinner!  
 
Here’s my monthly menu to share (pin here) & read below on how to print:

  • 3 Packet Roast 
  • Enchiladas (I modify the recipe slightly, but this is delicious!)
  • Honey Teriyaki Chicken from Frugality Girl
  • Another favorite recipe: Rachel Ray Spaghetti & Meatballs
  • One Pot Chili Mac & Cheese from Damn Delicious
  • Lasagna Soup from Damn Delicious
  • Slow Cooker Bacon Wrapped Chicken w/Dried Beef

    No more stress every weekend about what we were going to eat the following week. No more scouring Pinterest & cookbooks to figure out the standard question, “What’s for Dinner?”.

    Instead, pull out this menu plan & create the grocery list for the week from what was on the menu.

  • Homemade Sloppy Joes from Pioneer Woman
  • Potato Soup from Gimme Some Oven
