I subscribe to Menus 4 Moms and I think it has helped me be better organized and probably save some on my grocery bill. I know for sure it has introduced my family to foods that they never had before. Last night's dinner was mustard chicken, vegetables (black beans, tomatoes, green chilis, corn topped with cheese) and a salad. They LOVED it! Especially the mustard chicken, who would have thunk it?
Put this idea together with eating locally and what do you get? Menus For Homesteaders. Menus that incorporate, as much as possible, food grown on the homestead. Vegetables, meats, fruits, home canned goods, homemade cheese and butters, homegrown honey. Sounds good and healthy, doesn't it? Also sounds very frugal. Now does anyone know of such a site? If not, wouldn't it be great to have one? I know that we all live in different parts of the country (and world) so we don't all raise the same food, but I love the idea. Maybe it's something we could all work on together?
Just a thought.

I know I definately need to plan ahead better with our meals!
I plan ahead our family meals as well, and it definately saves me money at the grocery store and saves me time too!
God's Blessings,
