Here’s an easy menu for the week with 7 easy dinner ideas so you can eat at home and save money, while enjoying time with your family!
Do you ever feel like you are making the same 10 dinners over and over and starting to dread dinner time more often than not?
It’s so easy to get burnt out from eating at home – it’s literally a non-stop task (but one that is so good for your family life, health, and your wallet).
So don’t get discouraged and don’t give up on cooking meals at home – it’s an important job (even if no one else tells you!).
To make it a little easier for you, or give you some needed inspiration, I thought I would put together a sample meal plan you can use for next week – use it as is or copy a couple of meal ideas to change things up.
I hope you find some new ideas and inspiration to keep up the work of cooking and eating at home with your family – you are doing so great!
Menu for Next Week:
Sunday: Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie Pasta, Refrigerated Crescent Rolls or Salad
Monday: Sloppy Joe Sandwiches, Chips, Fruit
Tuesday: Crispy Fried Chicken Sandwiches, Steamed Veggies
Wednesday: Fettucine Alfredo, Caesar Salad, Breadsticks or Rolls
Thursday: French Bread Pizza, Garden Salad or Veggies with Dip

Use the links for easy recipes, find another you like (I search with quick and easy _ for recipes), or make up your own recipe (I sometimes find this easier to do and I don’t use so many ingredients).
We’re all out here just trying to get dinner done every night – it doesn’t always turn out great and sometimes people complain, but in the end, we know we are doing our best for our family, so we can have nights at home around the table together, making memories, and saving some money, too!
Keep at it, mama – you are doing great things!
