Menu plan for the month

We have slowly been eating up the meaty goodness from our food stores. I made a menu plan a week or so ago. I have even stuck to it so far! That's usually where it goes wrong. I write it all down, but then don't follow through.

I think it helps that I also used the menu plan to decide what to buy at the grocery store. I do have a fair amount of surplus food in the freezer and pantry if I want to go off script. I am trying to have at least two veggie meals each week, one fish meal, and the rest is set to get rid of, erm, eat up the meats.


I keep this on the fridge so I remember to set out anything that needs to thaw. I also find it helps keep pookie in the loop as to what's for dinner. I write over the bits I've used with things I am running low on.

We are on box two, the baked chicken legs. You'll notice the Thursday meal I had to change.. couldn't find any canned pumpkin at the aldis. I had to change the ziti in box three, and the sushi night also had to be canceled as Meijers was out of nori.
