Dinner

March 27, 2017 4:08pm CST
How far ahead of time do you plan dinner? Are you a meal prepper? What is your weekly dinner budget? Where do you find recipes? Today on the menu is salmon in a lemon and butter sauce, roasted potatoes and an undecided green vegetable. My family is on a mission to eat as healthy as possible. We've been trying to eat as many vegetable as possible, as I am leaning far to vegetarian diet. The GMOs and uncertainty of what exactly is in the food these days is inspiration enough.

I wish you much success to you in eating healthy. It is certainly a challenge in these days of all additives and GMO's. Wish you all the best!

I usually decide the night before when I thaw something out.

I absolutely despise the days I forget to take dinner out and then I have to wait for it to thaw or go to a plan B.

That's a good recipe. I'll find my menu ideas online and even on Pinterest, especially for my crockpot. I rarely use my mother's old cookbooks. I sorta know in advance for grocery shopping. And if I have no ideas, I'll do a quesadilla or even breakfast for dinner. I'm having chicken tenders with corn.

Chicken is one of our favorite go tos. There is so much you can do with it. Corn is one of my favorite vegetable. Enjoy!!

Sometimes my mom and I prep for meals and sometimes it is spur of the moment. We try to keep everything we eat balanced. Since we don't have much money, we worth with what we can get

I don't really plan for dinners. Unless I find a recipe that I really want to try then I don't plan ahead but then again I am in college and still live with my parents so I don't really buy the food to fix. I just pick something out of the pantry.

That's amazing... But I am not a food lover so I eat less... And don't even plan for eating.. but I I also prefer salad as the major part of my food .
