Most months I plan out a menu so I can buy all that I need with the exception of produce and dairy at the beginning of the month. I usually don't plan exactly what I make each day but it makes things easier if I have a few options each day and know that all things needed are in the kitchen already. We rarely eat out so it's nice to have choices for dinner. We eat a lot of Mexican style foods! This is my list for shopping purposes for the month of March and it is in no order! I also leave a few "empty" nights for leftovers! Many days the kids and I eat leftovers for lunch. I don't usually plan sides since I never know what will be in my farmers market basket each week!
