Sister T, in a different forum you said you use weekly menus. I'd love it if you could post one, two, or ten or your weekly menus. I can come up with a recipe. I'm just terrible at planning the weekly menus. Thanx.

Here is an example of my menu I prepare. My husband get paid on the 1st and 15th of the month, so I prepare for that period of time.
I don't prepare a breakfast and lunch menu because my kids fix their own meals at that time. I make sure I stock up on a variety of breakfast and lunch foods. Usually I get those items from Sam's or Walmart. Things like Fish Sticks, Nuggets, Egos, Cereal, Pancake, Eggs, Bacon, etc.
When preparing my menu, I take into consideration our weekly meetings and other engagements. If we are going to be away, that's a "Eating Out" day. I try to cook enough food to last two days so that I won't wear myself out in the kitchen.
Once I plan my menu, I write my grocery list based on what I need to prepare the foods. Another money saving tip----- when preparing your menu, look in your pantry and freezer to see what you have left that you can cook. That will be less that you have to buy.
Here is my current menu:
Friday, Sept. 1

Saturday, Sept 2
Baked Turkey, Yams, Green Beans, Broccoli Rice
Sunday, Sept. 3
Leftovers
Monday, Sept., 4
BBQ Ribs, Jambalaya, Baked Beans, Cake
