Menu Plan Monday 10/12-10/18


**Another week is upon us so that means it is time for another menu plan! This is just a plan and it could change on the cook’s whim!

Last week's menu went off without a hitch! We stayed the plan and ate the meals as planned.

I find that using master lists helps streamline menu planning so last week I took the time to update my master menu suggestion lists! (follow this link or you can find a link to each category over in my right side bar down by Organizing Junkie's button.)

This week's shopping trip was just to get the few things I was out of for meals and to do about $10 worth of stockpiling because of the sales.

This week, I have planned meals to use up things in my freezer since I had to pull several things out of it because the freezer door was left opened again!! The child is totally banned now from going into that freezer!

Lunches listed are for the kids and me. Usually with our lunches I serve carrot sticks, and some kind of in-season fruit along with juice or water to drink. Hubby usually takes dinner leftovers each day along with several items for snacks.

Thanks for sharing your menu, it all looks delicious. I love the master menu list suggestions, I have been working on something similar, but didn't have a name for it yet. . .I plan to post my "master list" when I finish it.
