This will be my second meal plan ever. My first one (last week) went pretty well. Everything that was on my menu, I made, and it was all very good. It also made it very easy when thinking about what we should eat. Of course it made grocery shopping easier also.

There are a couple of small things that I need for this week (fruits, vegetables, milk, bread, etc).

It will be a little harder for us to make dinner at home soon since my classes start this week and I go until around 10pm at night. But I’m still going to try and cook on those days. Some of you have asked why the BF never really cooks dinner for us, and that’s because he doesn’t get home until after 11pm, and I honestly could not wait for him to get home and make food because I would be starving.

My friend’s mom is also giving me her bread maker, so I plan on attempting that also!

Here’s what I plan on making as our main course for each dinner:

  • Monday– Teriyaki Chicken
  • Tuesday– Chicken Enchiladas
  • Wednesday– Steak
  • Thursday-Spaghetti and meat sauce
  • Friday– Out for dinner
  • Saturday– Fajitas

What’s on your menu? I’m always looking for ideas!

    That is such a good week of dinners. You are way more organized than I am! I buy a rotisserie chicken and make 3 or 4 different dishes out of that. Enchiladas, BBQ chicken pizza, etc :)Jenna

    Sounds like a great meal plan! I have to get better at this, it's such a fantastic money saver. I always think it's important to treat yourself at least once a week or every two weeks and go out to dinner. :)Sam

    Looks good! Sunday night I made chicken using Helmann's Chipolte Sauce and it turned out well, the pickiest eater in the house had the drumstick wiped clean!

    Use your crockpot on days when you will be home late! It's a lifesaver!
