[What is Meal Pinning Monday?]
MPM is how I meal plan for our little family. I once spent a lot of time searching the web and my recipe books hunting for new recipes and ideas for what to cook every week. Then, Pinterest came along and made meal planning much easier for me. Every weekend I look over what I have pinned the prior week and decide what I would like to cook and make my grocery list from these recipes. MPM came about as a way to share what I am cooking, and to also see what others are cooking every week to hopefully get even more dinner ideas from other bloggers. If you don't pin your recipes feel free to just share what you are cooking.

***If you would ever like to host Meal Pinning Monday I would love to have other bloggers guest pin for me. If would be a great way to promote your blog for free. All I ask is that you would post on your blog that you are guesting posting over here and maybe tweet it. If you're interested email me at labrideblog{at}gmail{dot}com.
