August Meal Plan
This month’s meal plan is loaded with summertime favorites and garden goodies. I’m planning 5 home-cooked meals each week, assuming you will eat out at least once and possibly have a left-over night.
I’ve also added a weekly treat for you sweet-tooths!
I hope this makes your grocery trips and cooking experience a little easier this month.

I love Ethiopian food and I’ve been trying to recreate some of my favorites at home since there’s not an Ethiopian restaurant around here. I’m so glad you linked to your Mesir Wat recipe! Definitely going to make that.

Great idea. I plan meals weekly but usually can’t get to more than that at a time. I can’t wait to try your chicken tortilla soup – it’s a favorite of mine!

I’m ready to start meal planning now that school starts next week. Definitely will refer to your ideas here!
