Now that school is back in session and schedules are more regular, it is time for you to get organized in the kitchen. One of our most valued principles at Rubbingnickels.com is organization. To help you get organized around family meal time, we have developed a Two-Week Meal Plan to take the guesswork and “impromtu-ness” out of your evening meals.

Our recipe selections are divided into two lists: “Hate to Cook” and “Like to Cook”. Hate to Cook recipes are for those families where time is of the essence and cooking is something that has to be done, as opposed to something that can be enjoyed. Our Like to Cook recipes, on the other hand, are a little more complicated and slightly more “gourmet” and for families that like to spend time in the kitchen preparing a nutritious meal for the family. And each recipe is listed under the place in the meal plan it belongs so that you can plan your week of meals in advance.

The basic Two Week Meal Plan is as follows:

Week One:
Sunday – Pasta Night
Monday – Meatless Monday
Tuesday – Soup/Stew and Bread Night
Wednesday – Easy Day Suggestions
Thursday – Burger /Panini Night
Friday – Fish or Fowl
Saturday – “Smorgasbord” Night (use your leftovers with supplements)

Week Two:
Sunday – Casserole Night
Monday – Meatless Monday
Tuesday – Soup/Stew and Bread Night (make a different soup than Week One)
Wednesday – Easy Day Suggestions
Thursday – Entrée Salad and Bread
Friday – Carnivore’s Choice
Saturday – Eat out! You deserve it.
