I will never go back to not having a plan!

Love talked me into trying to organize my grocery shopping and meals into weekly/bi weekly meal plans about 18 months ago and I will never go back! She made me a believer! Before meal planning, what I was going to make for dinner was an ongoing dilemma in my house. I walked around the grocery store aimlessly and went back and forth a few times a week for 1 or 2 ingredients each time spending more and more money. Love taught me how to organize my meals, make an effective plan for getting the items to make each meal and now I spend less time and money at the grocery store. She also helped me to organize my recipes into binders which is a huge help.

When I think of how I used to shop and prepared meals previous to meal planning it seems so disorganized and so much more work."

If you like shrimp you'll love these nachos. Large tortilla chips layered with salsa, bean dip, guacamole and shrimp all covered in cheese. What's not to love..

Artichokes tossed with Melted Mozzarella Cheese and Garlic.

Spicy Buffalo Chicken layered with melted cheese, buffalo sauce and ranch dressing.

You don't have to love goat cheese to love this dip of warm roasted sweet peppers and tomatoes topped with goat cheese.

This is the easiest dough to roll out. It has a nice texture and is so easy to work with. It is great on the grill or in the oven.
