If you need a ready to go menu and shopping list, I just happen to have four weeks right here with every recipe linked and printable PDF grocery lists. These menus are geared toward a novice cook.
So, Home Eccers, what’s on the menu this week? Are you trying any new recipes or just trying to get into the habit of planning?

I love the idea of C.O.R.N. What a great way of identifying “leftovers” night. Sounds much better that way!
Monday (tonight) my husband is making burgers on the grill, with baked beans and honeydew melon on the side.
Tuesday: Roasted chicken, roasted carrots, stuffing
Wednesday: Italian sausage with pasta & tomato sauce, salad.
Thursday: Ribeye steak, steamed corn on the cob, steamed broccoli
Friday: Shepherd’s pie
Saturday: Out to dinner with a friend for me, leftovers or frozen dinner for husband.
(Our C.O.R.N. – love that acronym – is what we take to work for lunches.)
What a great blog! You offer simplicity for the average family to plan a weeks worth of menu ideas along with a simple click on receipes and grocery lists!!!
I hope you will join me for Crock Pot Wednesdays this week at diningwithdebbie.blogspot.com. Thanks for posting.
