Weekly Meal Planning

Ivanhoe

We started this weekly plan about 2 years ago. We had the same conversations as SciAggie each night. We (more like my wife) sat down and typed out all our normal meals onto small business sized cards with the necessary main ingredients. We, or mostly she, picks out the week's meals and does a check against what we have in the house vs. what we need for the weeks meals before heading out to the grocery store each wk. The meals are flexible by day vs how our schedules line out and kids after school activities. It's worked out quite a bit better and we have less wasted food.
