Why should I plan my meals?
If you haven't tried planning your meals ahead of time, this will change everything for you! Here's why I swear by meal planning:
- Time saving: No more panicking at 4:00 PM about dinner. With a menu plan, you know exactly what's on the menu, what you need, and how long it will take to prepare.
- Saving money: Meal planning does wonders for your wallet. When you organize your weekly grocery list, you’ll easily discover opportunities to buy in bulk and creatively use leftovers for future meals. It’s a smart approach that keeps more money in your pocket.
- Bye-bye, takeaway: When your dinners are planned in advance and you already have the ingredients on hand, you're less likely to hit the drive-thru. Cooking at home means more savings and healthier eating. Win-win!

My weekly meal plans always include a printable shopping list that is measured and ready to go. It makes everything so easy!
Storing Leftovers for Meal Planning
I only meal plan Monday through Friday because sometimes we have plans for the weekend or I have leftovers that we can eat before the end of the week! If you have leftovers, be sure to store them properly in hermetically sealed container in your refrigerator.
