Why should I meal plan?
If you don’t try to plan your meals in advance, this will be a game changer for you! Why I swear by meal planning:
- Time saving: No need to worry about dinner at 4:00 pm. With a meal plan, you know exactly what’s on the menu, what you need, and how long it will take to cook.
- Money Saver: Prepare to be amazed – meal planning can do wonders for your wallet. When you organize your shopping list for the week, you can easily identify opportunities to buy in bulk and creatively repurpose leftovers for future meals. This is a smart way to keep more money in your pocket.
- Bye-Bye Takeout: When meals are planned and groceries are stocked, you’re less likely to hit the drive-thru. That means more frugal and healthier eating. Win-win!
Each weekly meal plan includes a grocery list that is easy to print and convenient to carry while grocery shopping. Cross off or check mark each grocery item as you go!
Fresh salads with your meal!
Meal planning with leftovers
I only plan meals Monday-Friday because sometimes we have plans for the weekend or I have leftovers, we need to wrap up the week! If you have leftovers, be sure to store them properly in an airtight container in your fridge.
