Menu Plan Monday: Week of December 8

It's time to get back to the weekly routine of planning my menu's. Although, I know it will be put on the back burner in the coming weeks during the holidays. This week's theme is a little school lunch and a little more broke college student. The holidays are usually the hardest time for me financially, so I'm looking to eat minmally. This week is a bit busy with evening activities, so I will not be making many dinners at home (luckily some of the dinners out will be free!).

Also, I would like to add that although my menu's often look healthy, I don't always stick strictly to them and there are usually unhealthy snacks eaten during the day sometime. I find that if I make a plan to eat healthy ahead of time, I'm more likely to do it. But still, things happen.
