So I said I was going to change up how I plan my monthly menu so I don't have to do it every month...that just seemed silly since we eat the same things over and over again. So I divided them into the categories and print it out and slid it in a page protector so I can check things off during them month with a dry erase marker. Now I can work from the same list each month. This is what is on my list.

That is my standard for a months worth of meals...of course, right now I have a turkey in the freezer so I'll be cooking that up soon. And my weekly meals don't have to be limited to this but I have a jumping off point. :) And I won't have to create that jumping off point over and over and over and over and over again.
