Meal Planning Circus

Tomorrow is pay day and I still haven’t gone grocery shopping. Every military spouse knows that you want to be as far as possible from the circus that is the Commissary on pay day. But it looks like once again, I’ll be corralling my monkeys and heading in for bananas.

For a few months now I’ve lost my meal planning groove. Meal planning used to come so easy to me. We’d go months without a repeat meal, but lately I’m stuck in a rut. It seems like we eat the same handful of meals repeatedly. Taco Tuesday every Tuesday! And sometimes Thursday..

No matter where I look for dinner ideas, I can’t seem to find inspiration. Pinerest hasn’t helped much since they started using the smart feed. I hop on Yummly or Tender every so often for help, but nothing seems appetizing anymore. Is it just me, or is anyone else having trouble meal planning lately?

I created a printable meal planning calendar just now in an effort to come up with some ideas. I plan on toting it around with me, so I can jot down ideas as they strike. You can grab your printable meal planner here!

While you’re here, why not help me out and link up any recipes from your blog below! They may even end up featured in a future meal planning post! That is, if I ever get a solid meal plan routine going again..
