Menu Plan - Sept. 20

Hello and Welcome! I'm SnoWhite, the chef, cooking in our little apartment kitchen for me and my Frog Prince. Frog Prince and I have a love for good, healthy and wholesome food, that's easy to prepare with ingredients we have on hand.

My hubby affectionately named me SnoWhite because I love to cook and manage our home, and he acquired the name Frog Prince ... well, because of our first kiss.


Menu planning is something I naturally gravitate towards because I am an organized, planned person. When I started menu planning, I didn't know that it would also save us money, help us to eat better and reduce our reliance on convenience foods. Starting this week, on Wednesdays, I'll be sharing a bit about how we plan our menus in our kitchen.

Each week, you'll find a recap of the new recipes we made last week, as well as links and photos of any recipes we've made. New recipes for the week will be posted after they are made, so check back for photos and reviews.

Here's what was cooking in our kitchen last week:

Peach Muffins
