December meal plan- Family:

With our family plan this month we made it up with simple dinners but also budget friendly meal ideas. My kids love when we have theme nights and I’m not complaining because it makes planning easier. Our themes are:

  • Mondays are Breakfast nights
  • Tuesdays are Taco Tuesday inspired meals
  • Wednesdays are our leftover nights. If we don’t have any leftovers it becomes a kid’s choice and they make whatever we have at home.
  • Fridays are busy nights for us so we let the crockpot do the cooking while we’re at hockey.
