Career Development #10 Monthly Menu

For the past week I have been working on this goal.  I have tried to make a menu that I will be able to use much of the food that we already have, which will also save us money.  It's good for me to have a menu to follow so I'm not sitting around at 4 in the afternoon thinking of what I can throw in the oven.  If I follow this menu for the month, then I will also be able to cross off my goal for College of Culinary Arts #13.  This will help me be more organized and effective.

Here is the spreadsheet that I put together to track my menu.  As you can see I also added an additional column to keep track of the items from my menu that I need to buy at the store.
