From Storybook Character Day to ISTEP to end of the year parties and birthdays, May is going be INSANE. And if I don’t have a plan, I know I’ll fail when it comes to best using our resources, money, and time without a meal plan. I don’t always follow our meal plan to a T but there’s a relief in knowing that we have all of the items to make meals all week long that we need. That way, we use the groceries we have and stay out of the drive thru {obviously saving money!}
Don’t forget I have a newly designed Meal Planner to help you in your meal planning and grocery list endeavors.
Without further ado, here’s what’s for dinner on the Royal Table this week:

Planning meals was definitely one of the biggest keys for success in our paying off over $127K in debt. Often I swap days or side items to make our menu plan work but the main purpose is to make sure I have everything on hand I need for meals throughout the entire week. The less you go to the store, the more money you save!
