Meal Planning? I need some help!

I've started thinking meal planning might be my best option to stay on track with my diet and to be sure my family is eating the best possible meals when we are together! I also thought it would help out with the availability of left overs for work lunches.  Now, to find out how I should accomplish this task.

I really want to find a computer program that tracks nutritional values as well as the meal plans.  Does anyone out there have an suggestions.  Google is a great option but, I haven't found what I am looking for yet! And, when I do, it's a monthly charge.  I don't have the money to pay for one so, I continue to look!

Does anyone else family meal plan?
