Hello February! It is crazy just how fast January went by. Well what can I say about February. There are a bunch of birthdays from my side of the family, and it is usually pretty darn cold in KS. I do love the fact that it is the shortest month, and that makes it really easy to meal plan. If you haven’t started meal planning just yet, give February a try.

I’m still sticking to my vegetarian ways, so the menu below is what I’m making for my family. Maybe I’ll post what I made for me at a later date. It is funny I don’t really plan my meals, I just use whatever I have fresh on hand. So here we go, it’s February’s monthly dinner menu.
