I read this post at organizing junkie and this post at Lifesong, and decided it was time to get a bit more organized instead of just swimming through all my favorite recipes bookmarked on IE. So, I printed them out, got a notebook and dividers… and made about 4 weeks worth of menus! I followed Kim’s idea of making each night of the week a certain category and then plugging in recipes. The only problem I had was that many recipes are many different things… like taco chicken is: chicken, crock pot, and mexican! For now my weeks will look like this…

Monday ~ chicken
Tuesday~ beef
Wednesday~ mexican
Thursday ~ crock pot
Friday ~ pasta
Saturday ~ easy
Sunday ~ crockpot

I am finding so many new recipes doing this menu plan monday, slow cooker thursday, and favorite ingredients friday!

Here’s what my week looks like at this point…always subject to change! I am linking all the new recipes I’ve snagged below, thanks guys!

Hop over to MPM headquarters and join in, you’ll be glad you did.
