We are having a Summer Crockpot Week here at StockpilingMoms this coming week! We love using our slow cookers to help allow us more time to be with our kids especially since we are now officially on Summer Break from school. I have a bunch of fun activities planned for the kids and I this week so I do not want to be in the kitchen slaving over dinner. Enjoy our menu planning ideas. We menu plan because it keeps us from worrying about what is “for dinner”.
It also keeps our budget in line when it comes to dining out. When you menu plan it is important to include a family favorite weekly (and a leftovers or dining out night if desired). We try to make frugal menu plans to keep within our monthly budgets. A helpful tip is to plan meals from your stockpile! Here is a how to get started Menu Planning Monthly.
Crockpot Weekly Menu Plan:
Monday – Grilled Hot Dogs, Crockpot Cowboy Beans and Corn on the Cob
Tuesday – Crockpot Chicken Enchilada Soup served with sour cream, cilantro and shredded cheese
