Menu Plan Monday!

Why is Menu Planning so important, and how does it affect a grocery budget? If you've been asking yourself what the big deal is about menu planning when I share my menu with you each week, be sure to go visit A Few Short Cuts to check out the guest post I did on menu planning a couple of weeks ago. I think it will help shed some light on this subject for you...

Here's what I have planned for this week:

Monday - Dinner with family (we usually do this every week)

Tuesday - Quinoa and Black Beans (left over meal from last week's menu)

Wednesday - The Best Veggie Sandwich and celery sticks with cream cheese/peanut butter

Thursday - Tempeh Fajitas

Friday - Spaghetti with Vegetarian Crockpot Sauce (from Freezer Cooking Session), French Bread, and Salad

Saturday - Santa Fe Chili (from Freezer Cooking Session) and Tortilla Chips

Sunday - Broccoli and Cheese Mina

We do cook Vegetarian (although we eat seafood from time to time). To read more about how this affects our budget, check this post out.
