Meal Planning Secret Weapon
Do you ever sit down to make a grocery list and realize your mind is as blank as the piece of paper in your hand? Maybe you’ve made all the family favorites recently and just aren’t into making them again this week. Or maybe nothing sounds good. When this happens to me, I have several tricks up my sleeve, and one of them I will share with you here. I guess that doesn’t make it a secret anymore!
The Secret
What I do is simply go to the website of one of those make your own frozen entrees places, look at their menu for the month, and take note of any dishes that sound good. Then I either attempt to make something similar without an actual recipe or I find a recipe online that is similar to the one on the website. There it is. My secret weapon. So when your mind draws a blank try out this tactic and you’ll probably wind up with more than a week’s worth of meal ideas!
