Since I share my weekly menu plans almost every Monday, I thought it would be fun to show you how I decide what to put on those menus. I sat down in my usual spot, planned a menu and talked you through the process!
Here are the links I mentioned:

This Week’s Grocery Haul
Do you plan your menu before or after you visit the grocery store?
This was great! Thank you for sharing your process with us! My menu planning is similar. I “shop” the flyer before I decide what I will purchase and make for meals. I need to try some new recipes, though. Your master list of meals is impressive!

I liked seeing your process! I also like your master list of meals your family enjoys. I had my husband make me a list of his favorite meals on my phone so I try to incorporate those regularly into our routine. I plan my menu before I head to the store most weeks so I can pick up ingredients for any new recipes. Then I plan my menu with the most perishable dinners happening early in the week. I have a “keepers” and “I’d like to try this” board on Pinterest for recipes, but could definitely do a better job of keeping them current. I love the idea of being able to access the recipes at the store if you needed to.

Pinterest has helped me to come up with some new recipes. I also enjoy Christy Jordan’s site and many of the bloggers on my blog roll are good cooks. I am making one of Mari’s recipes tonight.( My Little Corner of the World.)
