September Dinner Calendar for Back to School
Print the dinner calendar here!
Hello hello friends!
Everyone is back in school and August is about to end. Fall is among us and can I get a hallelujah?!
I decided to put together a printable dinner calendar for easy weeknight meals to help all of you mamas with the back to school transition. Included in the printable is a second page where you can write out your grocery list. I purposely left Saturdays open for flexibility and filled Sundays with slow cooker meals. I also rotated pizza night and burger night on every Friday because I know my nieces love to have pizza night on Fridays and I was trying to keep this calendar kid friendly. I added in a few fish stick/chicken nugget evenings as well - figuring this would allow the adults to eat some left overs. =))) AND, last but not least, most of these will freeze well so you can make extra or freeze the leftovers.
Make sure to pin this to Pinterest for later - it could be used any month really.
You can also pin these images for later too!
