DINNERS
This is where my Trim Healthy Mama weekly menu really shines! I will usually highlight these items as I make them or write next to them which day I’m planning. I like the flexibility this provides. Sometimes if it’s a busy week, I will assign days to the dinners.
Also, if your family is like mine, Sunday lunch behaves so much like a dinner in my household with extra family members and fellowship, that is easier to count as a dinner. Sometimes actual Sunday dinner is lighter and sometimes not, depending on the week, so I just plan two easy dinner meals for that day. Actually, I always wanted an extra day my week, wait… I may have gotten that wrong 😉
