We are getting ready to celebrate National Eat Together Week: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner with a twitter party so we want you to be able to get ready for the week!

To maximize family mealtime, do your “homework” and plan ahead. Sitting down once a week to map out a meal plan and make a grocery list will save time and money on rushed weeknights. Use this list of ingredients to create the week’s worth of meals within this book.* All these recipes will be available in the special National Eat Together Week (NETW) section on TheOtherWhiteMeat.com.
