Enter to win a copy of Large Family Logistics before June 20!
In Large Family Logistics, the author advises developing a month's worth of supper dishes to make meal planning and grocery shopping easier. Well, it took several weeks to develop this one, but we did it! I took suggestions from my family and also threw in some new recipes.
Coming up with 29 different meals was not easy, but it will be so worth it. I have successfully made a Master Shopping List from this, which includes everything I need to make all of these recipes in a month. (My grocery shopping isn't quite as organized yet, but I'm working on that.)
As you know, I like to use my crock pot. So, I've noted on this list which meals can be cooked in the crock pot. I schedule these meals on busier days. I've also included links to some of the actual recipes from my own blog and other websites.

Can you tell we love Mexican food? : )
I keep this list, along with all of my other lists in a binder called my household notebook. They are also in a computer file by the same name.
So, what's for dinner at your house? We're always open to some new recipes!
