I love that Mal has sent me her meal plan for the week after planning was based around one of the tasks I set to meal plan around what was in the pantry/fridge/freezer. Mal is a first time Mum of a Preppy this year so meal planning has been a must ‘It takes the stress out of worrying what’s for lunch/dinner each day and as a Mum we already have enough to worry about. It also saves lots if money knowing I only have to buy whatever is needed for that week’
