Weekly Meal Plan

Posted: Fri, May 07 2010, 9:40 am Post subject: Weekly Meal Plan

has anyone grown up like this, or do it with their kids that they have set meals for every day of the week, rain or shine?

my meals are out of wack in my house, I spend on things I dont need, and I dont ever have meals that my kids eat willingly.

im wondering if I make a meal plan and stick with it week by week, they will get used to it, and I will save some money bc I have the weeks planned out in advance.

and im talking sunday always for example leftovers monday chicken tues fish wed macaroni thurs pizza. for example..... but every single week same story...

please advise Smile

Make a two week plan. In that way you don't have it repeating itself again and again.
Or stick to a basic plan every day of the week:
Sun- leftovers
Monday- some sort of chicken
Tuesday- some sort of ground meat, meatballs, burgers..

Get the idea?

You can try it, but it might not work. You have to be flexible and have leftovers or other food for picky children.

Maybe each kid could choose 3 dinners that they like and you could rotate from amongst that list.

For a while I stuck to a pattern for my meals. It was
Sunday: Chicken
Monday: Parve or Dairy
Tuesday: Meat
Wednesday: Parve / Dairy
Thursday: Snitzel
