UPDATE – Also, check out the monthly meal plans we create every month with a full month of easy, family friendly recipes and printable calendars.

I am loving the new Kraft 1 bag, 5 dinners meal planner. Each bag includes the recipes and shopping list for a week of home cooked meals for a family of four. They have 16 bags in four categories you can choose from including, chicken & beef, chicken & pork, chicken & seafood and healthy living. If you did one bag a week, you’d have your meals planned for a full four months!!

This is great if you’re new to meal planning because the site gives you everything you need to plan an entire week of meals. I am using the site to change my recipes up a bit. I get stuck in a rut, cooking the same meals over and over again. The recipes on this site are quick and easy to follow with a complete shopping list to make planning super easy. My family has been enjoying the new meals and the variety of foods.

We are committed to eating at home to save money and only eating out once or twice a month. Since we started meal planning we have seen a dramatic decrease in our eating out. There is always a meal planned, so it is quick and easy to prepare and we have all the right ingredients. Hope you enjoy the 1 bag, 5 dinners as much as we do.
