I don’t know about you, but personally I struggling to come up with weekly meals ideas. I mean I love cooking but sometimes the task just seems daunting. It can feel like every idea you come up with for breakfast, lunch or dinner are the same ones you have made a 1,000 times. Am I right?!
It’s time to step off of the hamster wheel called “what’s for dinner”, get organized, take inventory of what you already have in your pantry and get those meals planned out in advance.
The first place to start is to get your pantry organized. Get rid of what is expired, group products by similarity and if needed, grab some containers to help you clear the clutter. Once you have a handle on what you have already, you can start to build your meals from there. Always use first, what you have on hand and then add to your grocery shopping list what you need to complete the meal(s).
