Easy Menu Plan for the Week
One of the most time consuming parts of being a parent is feeding our families every single day! I hope this Easy Menu Plan page will be a good resource for you to come up with ideas for family dinners each week.
The intent of this page is to share my easy menu plan for dinners at my house each week. I will qualify this by saying that for the most part, I cook a meal every week night. We always eat Sunday lunch out, but our meals on the weekends are often dictated by sports or activity schedules.
If I don’t link to a recipe, these meals are likely really simple meals that are easy to throw together without a recipe. That’s how I roll!
