What’s cookin’?

Every Sunday I plan a menu for the upcoming week. I know some of y’all may think that’s a little overboard considering it’s just Richard and me at home. I promise I have good reasons for menu planning–Reason #1: It keeps me sane. I don’t have to come home every evening from work wondering what I’m going to cook. Reason #2: Richard can ‘check’ it before I ever buy groceries so I don’t wind up putting food on the table he doesn’t like. Reason #3: It guides my shopping. I don’t buy food we don’t need and I use everything I buy. Okay, enough with the reasons. I’ll cut to the chase.

Monday: creamy gumbo with rice;
cornbread

Tuesday: chicken breast with bacon and cheese; zucchini

Wednesday: lasagna

Thursday: Christmas party!

Friday: beef stew

    It definitely makes sense to me. Everyone should do a menu plan. It’s healthier and will save you money.
