I simply have a piece of construction paper and I write every day on the paper for ONE month! I use the front and back! I mark off days we are going out of town. I write in breakfast every day and I rotate them every week. I have seven breakfast food that I make and freeze.
Monday: breakfast casserole
Tuesday: breakfast burritos
Wednesday: eggs and biscuits
Thursday: sausage and biscuits
Friday: pancakes or french toast sticks and boiled eggs (not frozen but make once a week)
Saturday: oatmeal
Sunday: muffins, fruit and milk
I do the same thing for lunch! I have seven lunches and I just rotate them.
Dinner: I try to pick our favorite recipe and have it twice in the month. I plug it into two spots. Then I go on to pinterest and find some good looking, filling and frugal looking recipes that we will eat!
I add veggies every day and some times if we are lucky it is stuff from our new garden. If not I buy frozen veggies
If you look on our pinterest in once a month cooking there are some ideas there. Others ideas we eat for dinner are:
chicken and rice casserole
hamburger helper casserole (our favorite-I'll blog it tomorrow)
baked ziti
lasagna
baked spaghetti
chicken pot pie
Mexican durito chicken casserole
chicken enchiladas
bean burritos
tacos
and I'll be thinking of more and post later!
