i am feeling ON IT as far as meals this month.
🙂
(at least i feel it somewhere right????)
i used my PaperWorks meal planning calendar.
annie gave me some ideas of meals she was hoping to have and we got to it.
i thought i would link most of the recipes to help you meal plan too.
maybe something you haven’t tried?
maybe something you forgot was easy?
i am not saying that any of these are healthy… but they are meals that my family likes to eat.

Chicken in Parmesan with Sun Dried Tomato Sauce
and hey… moms of younger picky-eater kids… don’t give up hope!
my children were at one time the pickiest of eaters.
it has gotten so much better with age!
i think it will just keep getting better too!
there is a season of life beyond chicken nuggets and mac&cheese… i promise.
hang on.
🙂

Lisa - My peeps love your lasagna recipe!
KWolff - Thanks so much for this very timely post! We are still going strong with football/soccer/volleyball/orchestra/ROTC/dance/work that any menu suggestions are much appreciated. These all look like things I can fix and people can eat as they get in or out of the house. As much as I would love to sit down to dinner as a family it’s just not feasible right now. 🙁
So for the time being I’ll be satisfied just getting something good in their bellies! 🙂
Kimberly Dial - Thanks Meg! I’m gonna try several of these. I’m on that sweet potatoe and black bean chili immediately. Yummo! Thanks again for sharing!
GB Jost - Easy idea:
Every Wednesday night is “Breakfast Night”:
Eggs, bacon/sausage
Egg backed casserole with fruit
Waffles
Pancakes,
You get the idea…
Now that our kids are grown and doing their own meal planning, they also have Wednesday night “Breakfast Night.”
Ruth - Meg, Thank you so much for the dinner inspiration! I have made so many things you’ve suggested in the past because we have kiddos that nearly parallel your youngest 3 age and gender-wise! And I know what you suggest is something they will actually like…and it’s true, the older they become the more their tastes mature! Wahooo!!!!
carolyn - These look wonderful! Thanks for sharing. Must try those pumpkin waffles!
Kate @ Mom's Radius - I love this post! I just started planning my meals by month in September because I’m doing Whole 30. It’s making shopping, meal prep, and cooking so much easier. There’s no, “what should we have for dinner?” conversation. I am loving it!
Jennifer - I think home cooked meals are healthy. You are in control of what’s going into a meal. These all look and sound so delicious. I love that Annie worked on it with you. I’ve made the Sweet Potato Black Bean Chili…it is soooo good!
Sabrina - Thanks for the meal ideas! I always struggle in that area. I’m so glad to hear your once picky eaters are doing much better. I have three little boys that will hardly eat anything. It’s so frustrating. I just worry that they will miss out on all the delicious food out there because won’t eat anything. You give me hope. 🙂
