After being gone a majority of last week, I am glad to be back home into a routine! I think my family is glad too :). There will be a few reruns this week, I didn’t get to many of these meals, I am hoping to start adding more variety in our meals next week. So, in order to do that I need some ideas for recipes!
If you haven’t already noticed, I have added a community to the right side of my blog , it says “Blog Frog” at the bottom. This is a “forum” type of place where you can have discussions on various topics. So, please feel free to comment here or there. I just started a discussion on Meal Plan ideas and I would love your input. What ideas do you have for me that are good, tried and true, inexpensive (somewhat) health-conscience meals?
Welcome! For those of you who are new to Meal Planning, go to my “Meal Planning” tab here to help you out while you are getting started – lots of great resources.
What about you, what is on your meal plan this week??
