Become an organized cook- Step 3

By now you should have your list of meals divided into categories, right?

Step Three

Assign the categories to days of the week. For example:

• Sunday: From Any category
• Monday: Soups, Salad, or Sandwich
• Tuesday: Italian or other
• Wednesday: Asian or Mexican

You get the idea.

Become an organized cook- Step 1

I've had many inquires as to how I go about making my three-month calendar. I think I'm a pretty good cook, I like all my food but more importantly, my family and husband like it too. But a lot of people are good cooks. My strong point is the organized part. The whole point of me starting this blog was to help others become more organized with meal planning. I know a lot of people really dislike doing this.

So over the next month or so I'm going to give you tips or steps to follow to creating a meal plan. Once you get the hang of it, its actually quite easy.

First step:

• Write down a list of all the meals your family enjoys eating. The ones you cook regularly, and the ones you might not use so regularly. Don't include any that you want to try or that you haven't cooked by yourself.
