Goodness gracious what a month April has been. Our April Meal Plan has been kinda sparse and overly creative. But, we are still trying our best to social distance and eat down the foods we have at home. I’ll admit I’ve been getting a little sidetracked by some Pinterest finds (you should totally follow me!) and new things I grab each week at the grocery store. But, for the most part, we are keeping it on rinse and repeat and simply eating some of our favorites during self-quarantine.
Did your family try anything new this month?
