Just a quick re-cap on how I menu plan: Write out your menu and make a shopping list with all your pantry and freezer items for the month and the produce broken into weeks. Shop at the beginning of the month for all your pantry/freezer items and your week 1 produce. Shop each Monday for produce and other fresh necessities. Shop the sales mid-month and stock up as much as your budget and storage space will allow. Ideally, you want to be using meats and pantry items that you bought on sale the previous month(s) in your menus.
