October Monthly Meal Plan — #1

This October Monthly Meal Plan brings easy dinner ideas, sides, and desserts, helping you save time and money. It is life made easy! 

Hello everyone!  I am super-excited to be sharing a monthly meal plan with y’all today. Finally, right?! This will help us all to plan our grocery shopping, save money, and stay sane. 🙂

There are recipes for everyone: One pot, Instant pot, slow cooker, gluten-free, paleo, Whole30, vegetarian, seasonal, comfort food, etc.

As a homemaker, I have to do my grocery shopping every week. Although I have a general idea of what to buy based on the dishes that I intend to make that particular week, I always wind up forgetting something during the week — especially on days that are extremely busy.

This monthly meal plan will certainly help me, and I hope you as well, to organize our meals better. Of course, it does not have to be followed rigidly but it will provide you with some ideas… so get creative with it and mix it up if desired.

Why a monthly meal plan?

If it is already hard enough planning what to cook for the day, just imagine weekly or even monthly. This monthly meal plan will greatly save you time and minimize waste. It will even help you make use of leftovers. Now how cool is that?
