Menu Ideas List

A question every mom dreads can be “what’s for dinner?”

Sometimes you just don’t know! Sometimes you don’t have the energy to think up a meal idea.

Years ago I started making a list of some of our favorite meals, or meals we’d make fairly often that my family liked. I kept this list in the notes on my phone and it became a valuable resource for those times when I couldn’t think of what to make for dinner.

Here is my list, feel free to add or subtract from it- or just take the idea and make your own! It’s saved my bacon lots of times! Many of these recipes you can find on this blog, or on my other blog www.atozformoms.com (I’ve tried to move most recipes to this site but there are still a few I haven’t remade yet)
