When coming up with dinner menus for the entire month of May we knew we wanted to feature recipes that called for few ingredients, required little hands-on time, and used ingredients that were readily available.

We didn’t stop there! We also divided the groceries you’ll need to make these menus into 2 shopping lists (which will hopefully help limit the amount of times you have to go out).

Ingredients that are not included on the grocery lists are very basic pantry items that most people most likely have on hand, even now. Those ingredients include basic spices, mayo, white/yellow onions, fresh garlic, water, oils, vinegars, rice, flour, sugar, soy sauce, mustards, nuts, honey etc.

The grocery lists are to give you a basic idea of what your list could look like if you went with these menus. We do however recommend you look at each recipe to ensure you have everything the recipe calls for in addition to the amounts of each ingredient needed for your family’s size.

We hope this roundup helps you in the coming month with mealtime and grocery shopping!
