Weekly Meal Plan…Yummy!!!!
Ok here we go…I am excited to get back to posting my weekly meal plans…it is not only for you…but it also helps keep me on track with my weekly meal budget! Now I only post meals for Monday through Friday, because I expect most people have plans on the weekend or can eat left overs! Each meal plan and budget is planned for my family of six (I have 4 kids…3 of which eat like adults LOL)…so depending on your family size yours may cost a little more or a little less!!! My Goal is to make meals for my family for less than $30 a week…I hope you…
