Menu Plan Monday 1/2/12

This year is off to a wonderful start and I have vowed to create a monthly meal plan.  This past year, I have successfully planned a week at a time, and some weeks have went better than others. 

This year I am tackling monthly meal planning, so that I am able to have a better budget.  Sunday night I sat and made up a months worth of meals.  I will continue to post my weekly meal plan and then add recipes as able to anthing new I have tried during my week.  This month, I am trying many new meals and also have planned with my pantry in mind.  I am doing a pantry challenge because I want to do out with the old and in with the new.

Today is the first day of school for my children...This means back to reality for me.  Here come the nights of going to church and dance practice.  Many nights my running kids around doesn't stop until well after 7:00 pm.  This is after working a full day.  So how do I keep my sanity?  I plan my meals for the week.  I also will plan leftover nights on evenings that are very busy.  I also use my crock pot for the  nights I really don't have the time to cook. 

So here is my back to school menu!!
