6 Week Menu

After many late nights and lots of hard work, I have created a 6 week menu that our family just roates though.  I have found that it saves us a lot of money when it comes to groceries as I only go shopping once a week now!  It runs from Mon to Sat with Sundays being our leftovers day and includes breakfast, morning snack, lunch, afternoon snack and dinner.  Every dinner is different and snacks and breakfasts are on a 1 week rotation (let's face it, there just really aren't a lot of super easy breakfasts to feed 9 people every morning).  So if you have a child in my dayhome, this is what they will be eating and you can check on the "calendar" link to see what week we are on and our daily menu. :)

I am happy to share the word file with all my recipes and shopping lists upon request. Just keep in mind you might have to adjust amounts a bit as I run a day home and feed 9 people breakfast, 5 lunch and only 3 dinner so you will have to change it to fit your family size. :)

Update:  I think you can click on the following link and be taken to my menu via google docs.  If it doesn't work please let me know so I can fix it!!
