There are two great things about August in my home- one makes the kids cringe and the other makes all of us happy. This month brings back-to-school time for us which seems to come earlier and earlier every year. It also brings some amazing fresh, local produce (often times from my own garden) to our table. This month we’ll be enjoying local beans, zucchini, corn, tomatoes, and much more. All of these are featured in the Monthly Menu Plan for August.
We have many readers asking for all of the Monthly Menu Plans and the Printable pages to be in one location. So, we put them all together on a special page for everyone. Grab over 3 years worth of Budget Friendly Recipes and Menu Planning Tips too!
