Enjoy this May meal plan with a printable calendar and easy, family-friendly recipes.

Woo Hoo! It’s May! It’s getting (and staying) warm and sunny. Kids will soon be out of school. Vacations will be happening. Sports will be in full swing. It’s May!

April was a busy month for us with a lot of family birthdays. May is pretty busy too, but not with birthdays – instead, it’s with Mother’s Day, a college graduation, a high school graduation and a 5th grade graduation, a trip for me for work, and Memorial Day. And through all of that, 2 of my boys are in baseball. Luckily, it’s not crazy travel baseball, but it still makes for a full schedule.

So I plan. Even if there are many meals that are “PB&J on the way to the baseball field”. That’s still a plan. That’s still a plan that makes sure I buy enough bread. And peanut butter. And jelly. That’s still a plan. Want a menu plan that’s even more simple than this one? AND includes a shopping list? Try this one: ‘Incredibly Easy 5-Ingredient Meal Plan and Cookbook’ available on Amazon!
