A simple weekly meal plan, has made a big difference in our household. Click here to see my step by step guide on meal planning. For us the priority is to have a yummy meal ready to eat for dinner. So we had to look at options on how that can happen. It is very “normal” in our home for us to not get home until later in the evening. Which makes making dinner from scratch pretty impossible.
Our options are crockpot meals, things to heat up, doing a lot of prep over the weekend or having ingredients all ready to put in the oven. So we do a mixture of these things- I try to prep some things for meals, we eat left overs and we use a meal service called Home Chef. We pick 3 meals a week from them and order things that take little prep and have things mostly ready to put in the oven. Adding that last part has made our lives so much easier! I can’t express it enough! It has made such a difference. If you want to try it out for your household- here is a referral code for $35 off your first order with Home Chef! Enjoy!!
