Hey guys! How’s it going?? Well we are over halfway through the week now. Aren’t you glad?
I am…sorta. I’m happy the weekend is approaching. However, I must admit that my supper game is starting to wane.
I usually start out the week with an optimistic meal plan for the week…that doesn’t always go according to plan after the first few days.
One of the ways that I help give myself a bit of a boost when it comes to the supper slump is to keep track of all the meals I actually make.
If I make something for supper, be it planned or spur of the moment, and everyone likes it (reasonably so, at least) then I jot it down.
For over a year, I’ve been keeping track of what we actually like and eat. Not every day, mind you. But I have enough meals in my meal stash to bungle together 30 or so meals that we really like.
It makes meal planning so much easier.
And I challenge you to do the same! Find your 30, even if it takes awhile to get a list together. It will give you such an added peace of mind and make you feel like you have it together, at least a little bit. 😉
**Edit: I should add here that I also made a list of 30 starch/grain sides and 30 fruit/veggie sides that we like to go with the main dish of the night.
So here you go! Here’s my 30, what’s yours?
