January Weeknight Meal Plan
We are beginning January with a new Weeknight Meal Plan to help us stay better organized and use our time more wisely. When your days are very busy, trying to figure out what to cook for a weeknight meal can become a burden.
No resolutions for me, just goals and plans. My new Weeknight Meal Plans for this year are going to include an entire month of menu ideas along with links for recipes I plan to make. Of course life happens and plans change so let’s be flexible with these meal plans. If the grocery store has chicken on sale, there will be lots of chicken on the menu! God bless those chicken recipes, right! Same goes for ground beef!
Let’s dig right in and see what’s cooking in January! There are 5 weeks in January this year. The fifth week goes into February but I have included that whole week in the January Meal Plan to make life easier.
