Seven recipes for a 30 minute meal plan.

Like most busy moms, I often find meal planning to be a daunting task. I'd rather NOT think about it! But, by the end of each day, my family is hungry and I need help!

Meal Planning Ideas

Start by checking the family calendar to determine the type of meals needed each evening. Will everyone be home at the same time or will you be eating in shifts?
Once you're figured out how many nights you need to have dinner ready, take inventory of what's available in your pantry and freezer.
Choose 3-4 recipes for the upcoming week, prioritizing those that can be made with existing ingredients. As a bonus, consider doubling one of the recipes to create a batch for future use.
Put together a grocery list. Take advantage of what's on sale at your local grocery store. I like to order our groceries online and pick them up so I'm not tempted to purchase impulse items.

Meal Planning Categories

Monday - Meatless, Vegetarian or even Leftovers from the weekend.
Tuesday - Taco Tuesday or Mexican Recipe
Wednesday - Chicken, Beef or Fish
Thursday - Pasta or Italian Night
Friday - Sandwiches and Soup
Saturday - Pizza or Eat Out, Order In
Sunday - Comfort Food Meal

All of the recipes featured this week are 30 minute meal plans. Which is perfect for busy days when you think you don't have enough time to cook dinner.

Once you have your meal plan together, pick a side dish to serve alongside. Side dishes could include potatoes or rice along with one or two veggies. A tossed salad with homemade ranch salad dressing is always nice too.
