Meal Plan for January

When I first started reading blogs I ran across a friend of mine Mer- who I never knew we were so much alike until I fell upon her Meal Planning post!! I honestly, thought I was reading my own words!! She is so prepared and so organized- I just love it!!



I like her do a meal plan and have ever since we have been married back in 1999. I found it helpful because we have ALWAYS lived at least 15-30 minutes from a grocery store. If you buy in bulk it helps, and I use my deep freeze at lot!



I usually will write down all my meals, make a grocery list and stock up. Then I wake up and see what the day holds, when, if my husband comes home? And pick from my list.



I usually have the list in a notepad or on the side of the fridge where I look daily. You will find we are a meat & potato family... although we have a fresh salad with each meal- most of the time. We also like fresh fruit with our meals too.





Here is my Meal Plan for January-



*Steaks & Baked Potato

*Breakfast for Supper

*Roast with potatoes & carrots

*Grilled Chicken with Broccoli

I usually do grilled chicken once a week- or two taco salads a month.
