I haven’t posted one of these in quite awhile. When the kids were home for Summer, I planned a few meals, but mostly I just used what I had on hand. We also seemed to live at the grocery store, the kids were snacking or eating a meal about every two hours. Everybody grew so much this Summer, and the dishes never ended.
With the kids back in school, I figure it is time to get back to meal planning, trying my best to stay on budget, and get better organized. I’m also sticking with being a vegetarian. I make regular omnivore-friendly meals for the family, but I eat vegan or vegetarian. Which also means more dishes to wash.
Here’s what I’ve got planned for dinner for my family in September.

I am trying to get my grocery budget back on track. I’m also baking breads, and making whatever I can from scratch. We’ll see how the school-year goes.
