Meal Planning Monday

Last week, I didn't meal plan at all, and just had to come up with something everyday. I ended up eating cereal everyday (I love cereal, but by Friday I was sick of it), and the only reason I stuck with it was because it's fast and didn't require any thinking/cooking on my part. This week, I want to change it up again, so I made sure to take the time to plan out meals for the week. I think we'll be having some pretty tasty meals :)
