Normally we are BIG planners, but whenever I just stick to my list, hubby says there’s NO FOOD. So we went off the planning for two weeks. I think we’re going to go back to help curb some cost…

i guess i kinda meal plan in the sense that i think about what i’m going to make whenever i pick stuff up at the grocery store. but there’s no recipe or anything really in mind. i always end up making the same stuff! i would like to plan more to get some variety in.

I dont meal plan per se but I know what we’re going to eat. Hubs eats a version of a couple things, and so do I, and so does kiddo. So I know approx what we’re going to have…and it doesnt deviate much. That said, I always have a boatload of fresh produce and grains for them, and pretty much go from there.

I wish I were better at meal planning. I go through spurts where I’ll plan a week’s worth of meals and use my new groceries very efficiently. But more often than not I end up in the kitchen at 6 or 7 pm and wonder what I’ll have for dinner. Not the best idea.

I loooove meal planning! Well I don’t love it, but I do love having meals planned. I do my best to have everything laid out and planned, breakfast, lunch, and dinner for the work week. I am cranky when I don’t have something filling and yummy!

Yes! Meal planning keeps my week and grocery bill in control! On Saturday mornings hubby and I pick out several recipes (the number depending on what we have going on for the week — evening conferences, work dinners, etc.) and I shop off a grocery list of the items we need. Helps SO much! And I’ve learned to enjoy it! I give hubby the choice of x, y, or z that we’re planned for and we work off that!

great tips! I am definitely a meal planner, just a few extra steps makes a load of difference in time savings. I usually have about 3 meals for the week and they can vary on days depending what’s going on
