In the real world...
In addition to providing some reviews of all of the recipes we tried as part of our July meal plan, this month I am also providing you all with an idea of what happens in the NMOTB household after the meal plan is created (as promised.)
When people visit us and see our monthly meal plan hanging on the fridge, the follow-up question is usually, "So, do you actually stick to it"" My answer as always been, "Well, yes. Within reason."
But, this month I decided to actually keep track of the subtle changes we made to have a better answer for people. Sometimes the changes we make will be to the actual meal (i.e., We have a salad instead of asparagus because I didn't see any good asparagus when I went to the grocery store) and sometimes it will be a change to the calendar because of unforeseen social engagements, travel plans that change, or simply that I just don't feel like cooking dinner. It seemed like the changes in July were more related to the latter because it ended up being an exceptionally busy month. In looking back, it still appears that the correct response to that FAQ is, "Well, yes. Within reason."

Reality - Beef Lo Mein using THIS recipe.
The first recipe used beef boullion which I didn't feel like buying just for one recipe, so I did a little more Pinteresting and voila!
