Meal planning


I really don't mind grocery shopping. I love having a stocked pantry and refrigerator. It's the meal planning and list making I dread. Sometimes, coming up with a menu for 2 weeks can really tax my brain. When planning, I strive to have a variety of meals, {mostly} nutritious and well-balanced meals and make it easy on the budget.
Lately, I've been feeling in a rut, having the same suppers over and over again. So, this morning, I broke out a couple of cookbooks and my folder of recipes torn from magazines and printed from the Internet. My husband said it looked like I was doing research. :)
I wasn't necessarily looking for "new" recipes, {though, I did plan a couple}.
I found a list of some of our favorites suppers and pulled a few meals from it; I also rediscovered recipes I haven't made in awhile, but remember being a success.
The grocery list is so much easier to make when I have a plan. Now, it's off to the store! Hope you have a fabulous day!
