How I Plan My Menu-MENU THEMES


A lot of the experience that I gain is applied to the cooking I do for my family at home. Some places I have worked at had a theme for each day of the week, that still allowed for some deviation and inspiration.  I like the idea of organization and having a set, albeit, easily adaptable schedule.  Here are the guidelines I usually go by when planning my grocery shopping:

MONDAY:  Kid Friendly Night, Sandwiches, Soup, Salads, Easy Meals

TUESDAY:  Mexican, Southwest, Central American, Southern

WEDNESDAY: Seafood, Shellfish

THURSDAY: Indian, Chinese, Thai, Japanese

FRIDAY: Fish Night

SATURDAY:  Italian, Greek, Mediterranean

SUNDAY:  Comfort Food, Indulgences, and some kind of Baked Good
