MONTH OF MEALS | MEAT HAUL- (FAMILY OF 4)

Hey guys!
I sat down and planned out our dinners for the month and thought I'd share how I chose to organize the chaos. Planning meals that far ahead can be stressful when you are not used to doing it. That's why I just chose to plan what I would like to make throughout the month with only some days set in stone, then we can pick freely off the list since we have the meat available already. I can quick grab other needed ingredients each week.

I did this by deciding to make Sundays - crock pot meal day and have 1 steady meal every week. I chose a simple meal to follow crockpot day since those meals usually yield left overs for us anyway. (we are a family of 4)

So then I jotted down other meals we all like to eat in the two meat categories we prefer, chicken and beef. This was pretty easy. By jotting down the meals your family likes to eat like a hardcopy, you can use that list to look back on when planning or deciding dinners. This can help take the guess work out of shopping even when you shop/plan daily and weekly.
Also by having a hard copy of what you know you already like, can help you keep ingredients on hand for when your in a dinner jam or your favorites go on sale.
I chose about 16 meals (some meals we like more than once a month) I chose 4 crockpot dinners, and we decided on spaghetti for Monday nights.

Hope this inspired you to start planning your dinners. even if you just do weekly planning that can help you save money by not buying random food items. 😀 I usually plan weekly myself but since it's summer I just wanted extra preparedness.
