Weekly Menu Plan – May 25, 2015
We bought a new refrigerator finally so we’ve been eating in this week but it’s been delicious. Luckily we had some freezer meals that heated up well in the slow cooker while we were at the pool for 5-6 hours over the weekend! These kids might be part fish, I don’t know, they never want to leave the pool.
The only topic I like to chat about as much as books is food! If you have a menu plan or a delicious recipe you want to share, feel free to link it up with our Small Victories Sunday Linkup. I’m always looking for new recipes to try.

Menu Planning Tools
I have been loving Plan to Eat* to get my menu plan, recipes and shopping lists printed up fast! Highly recommend and you can try it out free for 30 days to see if you like it. It’s one of the May 2015 Goals to work on getting my abundant recipes collection organized so I will be using Plan to Eat a LOT this month. It makes it so much easier to search for a recipe and know where to find it!
I created a couple weekly planner printables to incorporate my menu plans into my week. Check them out and download for free if it will help you with your weekly goal and menu planning.

What’s on your menu plan for this week?
I like your weekly menu plans. I also do menus to save time and money. My kids are picky eaters, but that doesn’t stop me from trying the fabulous recipes at your Sunday’s linkups!
Thanks Brandi, I love trying new recipes and mixing it up with tried and true favorites. If they don’t like it that just means I get to finish it off for lunch. Thanks for commenting!
awesome meals! thanks for all the ideas 🙂
stop by and chat with me ♥ http://storybookapothecary.com
I keep thinking I need to get busy and do up some freezer meals for my family. I think it’s a great idea for busy working Moms like me. I just need to get organized and get some time to get going on it.
Oh, I am totally earmarking the Penne Rustica recipe. That is my favorite meal from Macaroni Grill!
Looks like you have a week of great meals going on…
I create my meal plan on my google calendar, actually it has its own calendar. Makes it easier to see everything all at once. Stopping by from #SITSBlogging have a great day
That’s a great idea Karen. Meal planning definitely makes my life easier especially when the little rugrats are hungry as soon as they get home from school. Thanks for stopping by.
I’m going to start meal planning as soon as we move into our new house next week. Not only will I not have to think about what I’m going to make for dinner every night, I’m hoping it will save me some money too! This is a great list and I can’t wait to try out some of these recipes, especially the berry spinach salad!
Thanks so much for linking up with #ShareTheWealthSunday!
