Meal Planning can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be.
If you’re already overwhelmed between juggling family and your career/business, and the last thing you want to do is:
- Spend your precious time researching healthy meal ideas that fit your family’s taste buds and won’t take eight hours to prepare.
- Painstakingly sketch out a shopping list, then spend hours grocery shopping, only to have to hit 3 different stores because they were out of the ingredients you needed for your planned week of meals.
- Spend an entire weekend washing, chopping, steaming, roasting, and any other number of cooking techniques that leave you so exhausted, you’re dreaming of Monday so you can just go back to work and not have to deal with this meal-planning hot mess.
- Set out your first pre-planned meal, only to have your family turn up their nose and order a pizza.
I am sorry, Pinterest lovers—I am gonna be real with you. The viral titles that claim “healthy protein-packed meals” are not always the case. Instead of simplifying your life, Pinterest sometimes take you down a rabbit hole of meal ideas that leave you right back where you started.
Here are 7 hacks to make meal planning just like it is meant to be…EASY.
Before you toss all your frying pans out the window…
I have a better way.
- Keep it simple: include protein, carb, fat and veggie.
- Label your nights and plan around your life.
- Double prep dinner. It doesn’t have to be a 5-hour routine.
- Plan and create a grocery shopping list at the same time.
- Get family buy-in.
- Build-in leftovers nights.
- It’s okay to buy “done for you” ingredients.
