I took time off of menu planning in December. The month was so busy that I had trouble getting to it! But life is much easier with a plan so I don’t wind up doing the 5:00 scramble that so often ends in ordering pizza. So I’m definitely ready to get back to it.

And that’s it! I try to keep my meals pretty simple, and they do become repetitive. But my family enjoys these foods and they are frugal enough to keep on the menu regularly.
What foods do you enjoy this time of year?
Yummy. You’ll look forward to meal time with these.
Happy 2016!
That looks like a great menu. I like to keep things simple too. During the winter I tend to use my oven more and make lots of roasts, chicken, etc. We also like lots of chili.
Looks like very delicious menu, thanks for sharing with Hearth and soul blog hop
Thanks for hosting!
I agree, planning makes all the difference, and your menu plan looks delicious, Jamie!
