Meal planning... YES!!

Ok, my plan for planning dinners is working!
First night: turkey reubens and red cabbage cole slaw

YYYYUUUUUUUUUUUM!

We went to the market tonight and got food for over 5-10 dinners. I mean the stuff for reubens alone will feed us for 2 more meals. I'm excited. Can you tell?

Meal planning?

My guy and i always have issues with dinner. "what do you want to have tonight?" "i don't know. What do you want to have?" Now with a baby it has gotten even more difficult to eat well, healthy, and fast. I've decided to plan better. Here is a list of the meals we eat often and feel comfortable preparing quickly (or in advance). I'd love to see yours!
