I just want to take a minute to say, “thanks,” to Laura from I’m an Organizing Junkie for getting me into menu planning. It really does make my week go so much smoother when I plan my menu in advance. Not to mention how much easier grocery shopping is.
Tonight, my husband, Bob, is going to be getting home late, so we have a kid-friendly menu, since it is just me and the boys.
Monday: Chicken nuggets, fries and carrot sticks. (Chicken nugget tossed salad, for Mom)
Tuesday: Baked ziti w/ sausage and French bread
Wednesday: Taco salad
Thursday: Chicken pot pie
Friday: Slow cooker red beans and barley w/ kielbasa and corn bread
Saturday: Leftovers!
That’s our menu for the week. Be sure to head on over to orgjunkie.com and see the rest of Menu Plan Monday.

Looks really good. This is the kind of food we like to have too.

What a great idea - I love that kind of planning and it would certainly cut down on last minute grocery trips for me.
