December Meal Plan

For November I decided to try planning our dinners out for the whole month instead of one week at a time. And it turns out that I really like doing it that way so today I planned out our meals for December. My method this time was slightly different - each day of the week was assigned a "theme." Sunday is pizza night, Monday is slow cooker recipes, Tuesday is for new recipes, Wednesday is mexican, Thursday is soups, Friday is pasta and Saturday is miscellaneous. It worked out so great! I'd recommend it.

Here's what we'll be eating for December...

1- Chili in bread bowls, raw veggies & dip
2- Spaghetti carbonara, salad, garlic bread
3- Stuffed peppers, dinner rolls, salad?
5- African stew over couscous, veggie?, dinner rolls
7- Mexican lasagna, applesauce
8- Cheeseburger soup, salad, biscuits
9- Spaghetti w/meatballs, frozen veg, garlic bread
10- Shredded turkey sandwiches, sweet potato fries, fruit
11- Pepperoni/pepper/onion pizza
12- Perfect pot roast, biscuits
13- dinner at small group
14- Texas chicken quesadillas, chips & salsa, fruit
15- Chicken meatball soup, corn bread
16- Lasagna, garlic bread, salad or veggie
17- Homemade chicken nuggets, mashed potatoes, veggie
18- Pepperoni & sausage pizza
19- Slow cooker beef stroganoff, veggie or salad
20- California chicken wraps, chips, fruit
21- Tacos, fruit
22- Chicken noodle soup, biscuits, salad
24- in WI
25- in WI
26- in WI?
28- Chicken fajitas, chips and guacamole

Many of these we've had before and liked, but some are new. I hope you find some you like!
