So I have decided to make my list of meals for 2 weeks and share them with you. We all get tired of recipes or coming up with new ideas for meals. I figured if I can help you with new ideas of how to save time and money, then great! I have noticed when I actually plan my meals, not only do I save time, but save money! I "shop" in my pantry first and make meals with what I have on hand and then make a list of things I need to purchase from the store. With the "extra" money saved in the budget, I stock up on other items. I use these envelopes from familymanager.com that allows you to plan the meals on one side and shopping list on the other. It being an envelope helps to keep whatever coupons you may have to take with you for your groceries. If you see a recipe on here that you may want, ask me for it! I'd love to share it with you!. Also, the beauty of having everything planned allows you to change up the meals. For instance, I had black bean burger quesadillas planned for today, but had chicken I needed to cook so switched with Oct. 30 dinner and made Coconut Curry Chicken and froze the leftovers for a later meal. I would love for you to send me a copy of your meal plan too!
