    My postpartum freezer stash is dwindling but we still need to eat every day, so I wrote another meal plan. I literally cannot remember the last time I wasn’t exhausted, so most of these recipes are tried-and-true without too much fussing. I’m going to be missing all of my freezer meals! As always, this is…

    Okay, I am giving monthly menu planning yet another try. Fingers crossed that no one gets sick this month and we can eat the whole thing! My Perdue Farms order was finally delivered a week or two ago, so it did take the full 5-6 weeks to arrive. Based on my one data point, I…

    Happy New Year! I’ve been listening to fireworks all day today – no one does New Year’s Eve fireworks like Hawaii! After six long months, I am happy to announce the return of my monthly menu plan. My nights have switched around a bit since I last shared a monthly menu plan. It feels less…

    You might notice a couple of repeats from last week on this week’s menu – I ended up with a cold last week and had to shuffle some things around. Last week I began planning my breakfasts and lunches in more detail. I did not do a great job sticking to the plan because I…

    Here we are again! One of my kids has her name day this week, and she chose “snacky dinner” for dinner. I love snack for dinner too, so no complaints here! I’m going to attempt to adapt the cheesy cauliflower and potato soup for the slow cooker on Tuesday. I have made it on the…

    Happy Sunday! We are still in the hotel (I think I will be saying this for a while) and my slow cooker is working double time. When I used it to make some chicken thighs for salad a couple of days ago, I made enough for this week’s salad as well. Just because I don’t…

    This is the first little menu plan I have done since moving out of my house almost 2 months ago. It is pretty simple and slow cooker-centric because we are actually living in a hotel right now (more on that later). I’m basically working with a 2-burner stove, microwave, and my slow cooker. Anyway, I…

    Happy June! This is my last monthly menu plan for a while – we are moving in August so I will be spending July trying to use up the odds and ends in the pantry and using shorter-term planning to really hone in on what I already have. I usually do grocery shopping once a…

    Well, April got away from me and between Easter and everything else, I didn’t get to make a couple of the recipes on my last menu plan. But that’s just life, isn’t it? So I moved the recipes that we did not get to eat right onto my May menu. A couple of other recipes…

    This is the third part of a four post series on filling your freezer before adding a new baby to the family. Revisit Part 1 and Part 2. Before we go any further, I need to emphasize that 8 weeks of food is a lot to take on, especially towards the end of pregnancy. I…
