Meal Planning

I've been being really good at planning our week with activities and meals.  I have a weekly schedule I put up on the fridge for every Sunday.  With work I usually am off a little early on Friday's since I work every Saturday.  So while the kids are at school on Friday I run to store and do all my grocery shopping.  From my meal plan I can make a detailed list of groceries needed for the week.  Since Sunday's are really busy and I don't have a large deep freezer I can't premake the meals.  I can prepare the meal the night before so I can either start the crockpot the next morning or put the dish in the oven with the delay start before I leave for the gym.

So I thought I would start to share my meal plan each week:

Sunday - Cube Steak and Potatoes (This is not a healthy meal night, it's Rick's fav and I do it once a week for him .. lol.
Friday - Boy's Pick (probably Papa Murphy's)
Saturday -Bacon Cheeseburger Pockets - The Seasoned Mom (I believe we will be bringing dinner to friends, so a kid friendly meal

Meal Plan Monday
Have a GREAT weekend!!
