Menu Plan Monday - Week of 6/3-6/9



So it's been awhile for my family and actually writing down a menu plan.  A long time ago I explained how I roughly follow a "plan" each week in terms of what type of meat or theme I might have each evening for supper.  Breakfast and Lunch are usually day-by-day, but all our meals mostly come from our kitchen.

I've been inspired by Skinny Mom's Kitchen to begin writing down a menu plan each week.  (If you haven't checked out her blog yet, you should as it is really great!)

As you will see below, I list items that have been purchased locally or are Organic (some are both!)

Breakfast

Cereal, fruit
Organic plain yogurt with local strawberries and locally made granola
English muffin w/ peanut butter, banana
Homemade banana bread

Lunch

Whole wheat tortilla w/ hummus, local tomatoes and local spinach, carrot sticks, fruit
