meal planning {april}

I haven't done an actual Meal Planning Monday post in a while.  I did my Whole30 in January but after that  I have been struggling keeping up with what I actually plan. I have a meal plan typed up in my phone, but I just haven't been posting them.  I have been a cooking rut lately, so I am trying something new.  My friend Jenica meal plans for the entire month and loves it.  So here goes…...here is our meal plan for the entire month of April.  I'm sure things will come up, life will happen, or I just won't feel like cooking, but at least I have a plan!!

**And don't worry, Matt and I don't have Mac N Cheese on our date nights!  We feed the kids Mac N Cheese every Sunday night before AWANAS and they think it's the greatest thing ever.  Then, after we drop them off at the church, Matt and I go grab dinner together.  It's been the best way for us to have a date night each week.  We are going to be so sad when AWANAS is over at the end of this month.
