Recently I started a new job from home. This means that I am now a working homeschool mom and I have to be more disciplined with meal planning.

I knew that we would have a full schedule so I decided it was time to focus on meal planning on a budget. I wanted to share some of what I have learned in the last few weeks in case you are in the meal planning mindset right now.
