Another month of dinner ideas are here. With school already in session we are already in our routine. And nothing helps my routine more than planning out a month worth of dinners at a time. A life saving help for our busy family of six. And don’t forget to double your meat amount and freeze half to save yourself when you need some help. I love freezing leftover chicken for dinner another night. As always we have some new recipes and some old favorites.
- Skinny Mexican Pizza
- Summer Fresh Corn and Zucchini Chowder
- Taco Salad
- Herb Rubbed Pork Chops
- Hamburgers with Baked Potato Fries

And if you haven’t already made or bought yourself a Menu Board I would suggest you check out this post to get some ideas. These awesome dinners won’t help me out unless I can see what I need to make that night or what to start in the crock pot. Another thing our family likes to plan is our weekly family nights on Monday. We set aside time to spend together, learning and singing. Also dessert is pretty much guaranteed so my kids love when I make a favorite dinner that night.
