I know it is only Sunday, but I have a few minutes right now to do this and I may not have time in the morning. So, here is my menu! We are trying to eat up all of the Once A Month Cooking meals from September. Then Friday is grocery shopping day and we will start fresh.

I read Saving Dinner Friday afternoon and it looks like a great, healthy plan. I am going to try following Saving Dinner's menus for a month. I am going to shop for one week at a time and see how that works for me.
