~Menu Plans~

Well Randy is back next weekend, woohoo!, so I am getting back to menu planning.  Now that there is someone to really cook for it is a huge help.  Ethan & I can get by without one but with Randy home they keep my sanity!

Our menu plan is pretty easy:  Wednesday Nights when Randy is home is Burger night so it varies on type but not what it is.  I am trying to go meatless one night a week and have fish once a week.  Lots of veggies and variety so we don’t get bored too!  The best part is that I know that all I need for these two weeks meal plans is:  Broccoli, Buns, Veggies for Minestone soup, coleslaw mix,  salad mix, soft tortillas and tofu.  A quick and easy and cheap shopping trip on Sunday nights to prepare for the following weeks menu!  It makes me so happy to have a plan!!!
