How do you make a busy week easier? Make a meal plan! Knowing exactly what to cook and when, saves you time, money and stress. Check out this week’s family meal plan.
BENEFITS OF MEAL PLANNING
Each week I plan my meals for the following week, this is called meal or menu planning. Some think it’s not worth it, but it really is a simple task that takes 5-10 minutes to plan one week of meals. The money and time that these five minutes save me throughout my week, makes it well worth the effort.
