    I realized at the last minute that I didn’t have the ingredients to make the the chicken dish that was on my menu. I switched to the next day’s dinner – the beef & broccoli stir-fry. I have done that on other days, but was wondering if that makes a difference. Is the menu for each day carefully made to have a certain amount of calories, or enough bulk or anything that I’m throwing off by doing this?

    This recipe suggests serving over rice which would be very nice. However, my menu planner has combined it with Broccoli Cheesy Potato Bake and does not offer rice as a replacement option. Is there any way the menu planner is able to take the ‘recommended’ side dishes into consideration when planning the menu?
