As a homeschooling mom of boys, I’ve learned over the years that one trick to making my days and my week run a bit more smoothly is by having a meal plan in place for my families lunches and dinners. I whole heartedly believe that food is medicine and that it is extremely important to be cautious of the products you consume. This is why I try to make the majority of our meals homemade from scratch.
Typically, this is the schedule that I try to stick with when planning our meals each week:
Sunday – Chicken
Monday – Eggs/Breakfast
Tuesday – Beef
Wednesday – Fish (salmon/white fish alternate weeks)
Thursday – Chicken
Friday – No Meat
Saturday – Shrimp
Whether you are looking for new lunch or dinner ideas for your family or just curious what we eat in a day below you will find our family meal plan.
Feel free to follow along, you can “subscribe” to this calendar by clicking that “Add to (+) Google Calendar” button at the bottom of the month. By doing so you can add our “Family Lunch & Dinner Meal Plan” to your own google calendar. This calendar will update automatically whenever I make any type of change like adding recipes.
