This is actually more like two week's worth of meals instead of just one week. Sometimes we have weeks where I only end up cooking a couple times instead of 6-7 nights like I planned. I looked back on my planner this weekend and realized I only made 3 out of the seven meals I… Continue reading Menu Monday + Paul’s Favorite Dessert {2.24.20}

Menu Monday + Aldi Favorites {2.10.20}
Although this week's menu plan was not sponsored by Aldi, it looks like it could be! I've been loving their version of the Everything Bagel Seasoning, especially on Avocado Toast. During Lacrosse season I keep our fridge stocked with Aldi's pre-made salad bowls so that Paul can grab one on his way to a… Continue reading Menu Monday + Aldi Favorites {2.10.20}
How To Become A Morning Person
Let me be clear right from the start - I'm not talking about the kind of morning person who carries on full-length animated conversations with people before 7 AM. The thought of that literally makes my body hurt. In this post, I'm sharing three tips that will help you get out of bed and use… Continue reading How To Become A Morning Person

Menu Monday – Eating From The Pantry {1.6.20}
After eating out quite a bit over Christmas, I was happy to be at our kitchen table for supper all week long. This was the second week of a two-week Aldi haul, so we were eating from the pantry/freezer and finishing up the fresh produce I had on hand. As you'll see from my… Continue reading Menu Monday – Eating From The Pantry {1.6.20}
A Budget Friendly Menu Monday
During December I really try to keep our weekly meals as simple and inexpensive as possible. My sister shared a great tip with me recently - if she buys something for a new recipe (or an ingredient that she doesn't usually keep stocked in her pantry), she plans another meal the same week using that… Continue reading A Budget Friendly Menu Monday
Menu Monday + A 30 Minute Comfort Food Meal
Even though I tend to spend more time in the kitchen this time of year, full meals of home-cooked food don't have to take forever. On Friday night I was able to put meatloaf, mashed potatoes and green beans on the table in 30 minutes! The recipes I used are linked in the menu… Continue reading Menu Monday + A 30 Minute Comfort Food Meal
Carb Confessions {Menu Monday}
I love carbs. I always have and I always will. Often after I've written a Menu Monday blog post, I look back over the meals and realize how carb-heavy they look! We do eat a lot of carbs, but I try to work fresh spinach and other green veggies in wherever I can. We eat… Continue reading Carb Confessions {Menu Monday}
Fall is Here! {Menu Monday}
Rejoice! Fall weather is here! I was so excited to make my menu plan this week, looking at the forecast to see every single day with highs below 80. 🙂 This is the second week of a two-week grocery haul so I had to choose recipes that worked with what I had on hand. Next… Continue reading Fall is Here! {Menu Monday}
