Menu Plan and Grocery List - June 22-28, 2018

This week we are not too busy, so our menu does not have too many restrictions. The weather looks pretty nice also, which means I don't have to worry too much about heating up the house. We will enjoy some outdoor grilling though since it is the season. I did need to think about getting a snack for all the kids on Bear's t-ball team and some older siblings from Big Man's baseball team who have younger siblings playing t-ball as well. So we will make an extra trip to Sam's this week to get the requested bags of Skinny Pop popcorn to share and an extra bag of buns for sandwiches from smoked meat and the tuna rolls this week.

Here is my menu with the grocery list. I will include all the ingredients for that menu item and then what I needed on my grocery list.
