Menu Planning may sound like a lot of work, but it's actually one of the laziest things I've ever done. Since I started planning our meals for the week (and eventually the month) I've noticed some improvements in the way we eat and in the way I shop. Knowing what's for dinner not only saves time, it saves money and helps us eat healthier as well.
By planning out the week's meals I can make a more effective list for the grocery store and purchase only those items that we will need for the week. I make fewer impulse and duplicate purchases, and have practically eliminated the mid-week run to the grocery store—not to mention those impromptu take-out nights.
And if you display your menu where the family will see it, you'll never hear the words, "Mom, what's for dinner?" again!

Awesome Breadstick Seasoning
1/2 cup dry parmesan/romano cheese
1 T garlic powder
1 T onion powder
1 T oregano
Combine all ingredients. Store in cool dry place.
Sprinkle as desired over breadsticks after they have been baked and brushed with melted butter. I also sprinkle this on homemade pizza for a little extra flavor.
