Menu planning is a great way to also save money. By planning your meals, you can make sure you buy exactly what you need, stick to your budget, and create healthy homecooked meals.
This works under the assumption that you keep certain pantry staples always stocked. (Here is a great site that has a pantry staples list: http://www.realsimple.
This week, because chicken is on sale and its the beginning of grilling season, I tried to have a few more recipes that can be made using your grill. I also threw a soup in there just because it looked really good!

"If you can't speak well of someone, come sit by me." -Alice Roosevelt Longworth
Perfectly acceptable to insult someone in private, they might even thank you for it afterwards. But when you insult someone in public, they tend to think you’re serious.
