There are many foods that can be prepared all at one time then show back up on your family's menu as totally different dishes.
My first thoughts are always what is in season from our large family garden and what is on special at the market. Before I know it, a menu is forming. I make some notes to take with me for the shopping trip. Your list of purchases may include things such as eggs and produce; we are blessed to have those here on the farm. The final menu would be determined on how some of the meats looked and such. Always make a quick look through the pantry to be sure you have all the ingredients needed - you do not want to get in the middle of making potato salad to realize you are out of mustard.
Think of the building blocks of your family's meals or try some new ideas. Then fill in the blanks with foods that lend well to preparation ahead at time.
