In early 2011, I decided to start making weekly meal plans in attempt to make dinner preparation easier and to keep the grocery bill down. After making these plans every week for months now, I am happy to report that it has really helped to make our lives easier and I’m sure we’ve saved a ton of $ in the process.
Since I now see how successful meal planning has been for us, I thought it would be nice to share these weekly meal plans with you in hopes that I can maybe help make your lives a little easier as well! I try to keep our meals as healthy and well-balanced as possible, but I’m not going to lie… We like to keep it real and absolutely LOVE to throw in something as ghetto as beans and wieners every once in a while. 
We’re only human!

Question for you Laura – how far in advance do you plan each week?
Since we do groceries every Saturday morning, I tend to plan Thursday/Friday for the upcoming week Sat-Fri as that is when I check the flyers and make our grocery list.
