The New Plan
I am making a huge effort to find ways to save money around this house – no matter how small. One of the things I’ve decided is to make either a monthly or bi-monthly meal plan for dinners. I started late for the month of December but at least I got it done! Part of my reasoning for this is I only want to go shopping twice in an effort to save on impromptu purchases. Also, if I plan everything out, then hopefully I’m not running to the store to grab something I forgot and then end up cooking dinner later than normal. Shane gets paid twice a month so I would go shopping twice a month. Ideally I would be able to do this once a month but the money for it just isn’t there. If I do get to that point, I can freeze or Foodsaver anything perishable.
I know you are all dying of curiosity so here is my month long menu plan for December. After I have finished January’s, I will post that as well.
