Menu Board DIY

This is a neat way to display your weekly menu. There are a few ways that you can create a menu board. My advice would be to jot down those things that are not only practical but needed for your family situation. For my family, it was essential that we were able to display our breakfast in addition to dinner. It serves as a constant reminder for us to make sure we eat breakfast daily. We are always on-the-go so we needed a category for “fast meals” for those evenings that we get home late. Breakfast is color coded yellow while dinner is white. I also added categories in green for Leftovers (we tend to make dishes that last a day or two), Carry-out (this helps in planning and budgeting those family nights out) and O.Y.O. (On Your Own) which means that everyone can choose something to eat for the evening.
