Ever get a meal planning rut? Sure it’s easy to plan recipes we always make. But I get tired of making them. I’ve hit that point again. I’ve looked through my recipes and everything just looks BLAH.
So where do I turn? Pinterest, of course. You know… The food pictures I pin and repin and then never make. Now’s the time! I’m pinning my way through meal planning this week.

Thank you for sharing all of these recipes. I am always looking for breakfast recipes and have saved your page for future use. Have a great day. ~Liz
That’s great Liz! I think I have the hardest time with breakfast and lunch because I don’t always plan for them. I have another post here about thinking outside the (cereal) box for breakfast: http://www.savingandgiving.net/recipes/breakfast-mission-thinking-outside-the-box/ I haven’t tried all of them, but I like having that as a reference when I get stuck. Hope that helps!
I love munchy lunch! It’s one I enjoy frequently (since it’s just me and an infant at home) but hubby always vetoes it on the weekends 🙁
We’re with you! I think my Emma would have munchy lunch every day if I’d let her.
I am slowly working my way through my pins. My hubby & 4 yo would be happy with a 2-wk rotation, but my 9 & 11 enjoy trying new recipes with me. I make sure to go back & comment/delete with each recipe tried. I have found some great ones and a few that gave been deleted.
That’s a great tip, Brenda. I need to go back and make some notes about the ones we’ve tried. Thanks for the idea!
