As for me, I'm really bad at planning a weekly menu but I do shop with a list.

Dont plan a weekly menu, but shop with a list so I'm sure to have enough for the week, especially for dinners!!

I handle the meal preparation in our Casa, do all the shopping as well,yes I do make a list of what I need at the store. That said I always am looking for interesting things to add to the cart! I always include some type of meat with each dinner as well as a large vegetable salad. During the summer months I use the BBQ almost exclusively, in the winter months I begin to prepare more standard fare such as meatloaf, baked Salmon, Stews and roasts.

I work 6 days a week so I know what it is like to have a hot home-cooked meal to come home to. I don't cook much either because of my work schedule but when I'm not too tired and on my day off I make things that you can have during the week. I make a pot of sauce (gravy) with turkey/veal meatballs. Make enough sauce so you have leftover and during the week, just make the pasta. Also, homemade chicken soup is good, too. Meatloaf made with part veal/pork/lean beef is great with a baked potato (I put mine in the microwave..much faster) and a salad. Pasta is easy and there are many ways to make it. I usually make Pasta Fagoila (beans), peas and carrots over linguine, chicken w/tri colored peppers and onions over angel hair, marinara sauce, etc. You can make these type sauces ahead of time and just put up the pot for the pasta. Same goes for everything else. Another quick, healthy dinner is a romaine or spinach salad with cooked chicken strips, You can add what you like (tomatoes, olives, cut up cheese, bacon bits, anything!). As for grocery shopping-just have the basics in your fridge and pantry. Pasta, canned sauce, consomme, etc. If you buy meat and decide not to cook it, just freeze it until you're ready or just cook it and heat it up when your husband gets home.

I try to shop with a list, but when I leave the house I am dragging three girls and all their accoutrements that I usually forget the list that I wrote out. But I do remember the coupons (so I do get what I need).
