Menu Planning Form – Free Download
Here is a menu planning form that I use when I’m planning out my menu for the week. The top half has a weekly calender with space for Breakfast, Lunch, & Dinner Menus. It also has space at the bottom to list all the ingredients that you need to get at the store. A pretty simple and straightforward menu planner that also looks great on your fridge or magnet board!
Download this file and enjoy (for personal use only). Please tell your friends to come visit the site and download their own file. I would love a comment if you do download!
I also have a slightly different version of the form that does not have the meals for each day broken up.
Download this file and enjoy (for personal use only). Please tell your friends to come visit the site and download their own file. I would love a comment if you do download!
Each of these files are a 8.5″x11″ PDF. Use Acrobat Reader to open the file and print as many as you like! Happy Menu Planning!!
If you are another blog or crafting site and would like to link this project to your site, please contact me. Thanks!

I am SO using this! It’s BRILLIANT!
January 20th, 2009 at 6:21 AM
Thanks so much!! I printed this and it now resides in my Menu Planning binder. I think it’s brilliant that you have the daily schedule PLUS the grocery list right there!! No more double listing for me!!! Thanks again!!!
January 20th, 2009 at 3:49 PM
I just recently started to meal plan and this sheet is just what I need! I love how the shopping list is on the same sheet and organized into categories. I usually just make some random list and then it’s hard to follow when I’m actually doing my grocery shopping. Kudos and keep the creativity coming!
January 20th, 2009 at 3:53 PM
Thank you guys so much for the comments! I really appreciate the feedback. I love to organize, so keep checking back for more fun tools to keep us all organized!
January 21st, 2009 at 1:32 PM
Thanks so much, this is so much nicer than the one I made!!
January 28th, 2009 at 3:59 PM
I love this first downloadable menu planner. Thank you so much!
January 29th, 2009 at 6:21 AM
Bless you for sharing. Beats using just a piece of notebook paper.
Thanks

These are so much nicer than the ones I have. Thanks for doing this and making it available to all of us. You are awesome.
February 19th, 2009 at 9:32 AM
I downloaded the 2nd picture for my menu planner because I do the same set-up weekly, on blank paper! Now the kids can look on the list & see if that can of pineapple they are about to open is specifically for a meal later in the week!
February 19th, 2009 at 9:44 AM
Thank you so much! This will come in handy and it scores extra points for looking great!
February 19th, 2009 at 12:13 PM
These are ADORABLE!! Thank you!
February 20th, 2009 at 12:13 PM
I’m excited to try this for the upcomming week. What I like most is how the groceries you need are categorized- making it quicker to shop at the grocery store (my list of groceries is usually unorganized and I spend too much time going in circles around the grocery store because I:ll stop by the meat section, then not realize that I should have picked up a second item there until later on in my list). Thanks!
February 23rd, 2009 at 11:31 AM
Snagging the 2nd version, looks to be fantastic! Love the idea of shopping list and meal plan on one page. Saves a lot of time/effort.
February 24th, 2009 at 3:02 PM
Love these! I just started doing weekly meal plans myself. This is a very handy tool. I’ll be linking to this page from my site. Thanks! -Amy

June 29th, 2009 at 4:20 AM
I hate menu planning. I just do it in my head. But if I were in need to write it down, these would be great.
June 29th, 2009 at 4:28 AM
This something I could really use! I have not been planning my meals but, I have been wanting to start. Thanks!
June 29th, 2009 at 4:39 AM
This is great! Maybe using this will help me with much needed planning around here!
June 29th, 2009 at 4:39 AM
Practical. Pretty. And Perfectly functional in every way! Your generosity in sharing this is truly commendable! Thanks so much!
June 29th, 2009 at 4:59 AM
Brilliant! Now if I could only stick to the menus I’ve actually got planned and instead of coming up with new things at the last minute…
June 29th, 2009 at 4:59 AM
now I can take down my ghetto handwritten post-it notes on the side of my fridge! THANKS!!
June 29th, 2009 at 5:21 AM
These are so much nicer than the scrap paper I scratch my menus and grocery lists on!
June 29th, 2009 at 5:22 AM
This looks great. Now if I could just find someone else to do the actual cooking!
June 29th, 2009 at 5:23 AM

I also really like your blog layout and your header. Did you design them yourself. Very nice!
June 29th, 2009 at 5:32 AM
This is ALSO awesome! My husband and I love to plan out our weeks’ meals in advance. Saves time at the grocery store and during the weekday rush. Thanks again!

I am an avid menu planner, planning a month of meals at a time with one big shopping trip and then weekly trips to the farmers market for fresh veggies and fruit. I did not have a good plan for keeping track of my weekly menus but now I do!
Thanks!

August 17th, 2009 at 10:47 AM
My husband and I plan to use the second one each week to plan our meals. We can easily cut off the other side, and use it for a quicker grocery shopping experience!
August 20th, 2009 at 5:32 AM
I already use a chart like this that I threw together one afternoon. However, yours is MUCH cuter and I’ll be using it from now on! Thanks!
August 30th, 2009 at 11:29 AM
Thank you so much! The lovely layout and design make me more eager to actually meal plan—something I have little desire to do in the first place. Thanks again.
September 5th, 2009 at 11:26 AM
I look forward to using the menu planner with grocery list. I love that it is “pretty”. Will check back to site for other fun things!

Love these planners and just uploaded version #2. Thanks for helping me out. I usually just make a list next to my meals on scrap paper, but often I wind up tossing it without realizing, thinking it was trash.

February 24th, 2010 at 2:24 PM
I love this! Just sat down to try to make one up myself because the one I was using wasn’t really working out well. The one with the list is Perfect!!
Thank You so much for sharing. I do have a question though….is there a way for us to print on this? I’m challenged in that area, so thought I’d ask. I am able to save and print blank, but would love to type in my menus and print and save in order to be able to have a record of them With the list right there with it. That way you see right off the bat what you need for those meals.
Thanks Again!!

Thanks for the meal planner! I really like that the 3 meals are broken down – with school age kids it helps me keep track of which days they’re buying vs. bringing lunch (and to have lunch fixings on hand). And it helps me remember to have breakfast items in the house!

I was actually looking for canister labels and happened upon this wonderful site–GREAT menus! Thanks to you and your great [menu] layouts I can have a more organized (and trendy) menu to showcase my prized meal plans. THANKS!

June 17th, 2010 at 7:18 PM
Thank you for the free form! I can’t wait to start using it. One of my wellness goals is to plan meals for one week and see how it works for us. We are empty nesters and it is so easy to jump in the car and go out to eat, however, we are tired of eating out (and our pocket books are hurting as well). I want to start eating healthier and hopefully plan lower calorie meals so I can drop some weight.
June 27th, 2010 at 4:42 PM
I really like it! The only thing I would change is to list the groceries for each day rather than by type. So I would head it Sunday, Monday and so one so I know the groceries needed per day. Thanks for your time and work!!!!
