Seasonal Menu Planning - Fall

Seasonal Menu Planning, Fall 2023

This is a broad menu plan idea - rather than specific meals for each day.

What I do is plan a basic theme for Sunday Through Saturday, and then I compile all of our favorite seasonal meals into those categories.   If you look under Thursday, you'll see I also made note of the fact that our favorite taco food truck is in the area on Thursdays.  :-)

Here's the wider look at this page in my OneNote Notebook.  In my Cooking Notebook, I have a Section named FALL MEAL PLAN.  This Page is Fall Meal Plan, but you can also see I have pages in that section  for Freezer Inventory, Recipes to try, and Thanksgiving - in the fall section.

================

When I put together my first personal cookbook, YEARS ago, I sectioned it by day of the week.  Our son was a football player, so Thursday night was always pasta for carb loading..  Mondays were often repurposed leftovers from Sunday dinner, etc.  Having set categories doesn't mean we HAVE to have pasta on Thursday night, but having a theme made it easier to decide what I was making, most weeks.
