Come check out our April Meal Plan Pinterest Board.

Ideas and resources for menu planning in April, many seasonal spring and whole food recipes. Very simple ingredients, frugal recipes. I got a little pin-happy, window shopping for food. When exactly is pancetta in season?

You can save so much money by planning your meals. Even if you only plan three days at a time, you can be more thrifty by planning ahead. We do a monthly meal plan since our income is monthly, and do weekly or bi-weekly shopping runs for produce and dairy.

Vegetables

artichokes
asparagus
broccoli
