Weekly dinner menu at our house

Though I've been posting my weekly dinner menu here on the blog for several years now, I didn't much this summer.   Not because I didn't have one to post, but I simply didn't have time to share it here on the blog with the kids being out of school, moving, transitioning into a new town, etc.  Funny how children & family obligations require 124% of my attention and time! Anyway, school is back in session, which means I can start posting my odd ball plans again.

Please keep in mind, I only post my weekly menu to encourage you to plan ahead.  Planning ahead helps me stay on track.  I don't post recipes for what I'm cooking during the week.  I don't have that kind of time.  However, I do list the books used to harvest the recipes I'm using for the week (as long as the recipe is not something I'm whipping together from scratch).  For instance, "BLFC" stands for Biggest Loser Family Cookbook.  "CC" means Comfort Classics by Weight Watchers.  It's all listed on the menu.  I make a note of the page number of each dish.  It saves me time in the long run.  I hate wasting time, searching through book after book, trying to find what I'm supposed to cook that evening.  

Plan ahead.  It will help you be (and stay) successful.  If I know what I'm having for dinner, I can plan the rest of my day rather easily.  The weekly menu leads to my daily plan.  The plan is like a little road map of sorts.  It gets me from Point A to Point B.....while staying within (or at least close to) my daily Point range.    :)

{Side Note: Some of the books I use are really old publications that I dearly love! Look for them on ebay...that's what I do.}
