A template of your charts would be fantastic! I do something similar - I have a few meals picked out for each day of the week, and just plan what I feel like preparing, but I love the way yours is set up, especially the recipe lists! Great for grocery planning.

Glad to see you back! You bring such a calm no-nonsense energy to everything - it’s refreshing! My favorite quote from this video: “Those people don’t live in your house!” So very true! I’m not sure why we don’t put more effort into figuring out what works for US, instead of scouring social media & the internet for what ‘everyone else’ is doing. THANK YOU for being practical & reminding us to trust ourselves more. I’ve never had a meal plan that our family could stick with because they didn’t work for us. I’ll definitely be setting aside some time to craft something to try soon.

Welcome back to my home, I have missed you like everyone else! We're empty nesters except for my 92 y/o mother who needs much help. I have implemented several of your ideas to plan ahead. I have found that I can't "cook small" after cooking for a larger family over the years. So i make some meals that will feed us for two dinners (or 3). I have a large dish on one night, have something different on the next night, and follow up with the original meal the next night. I love knowing that twice a week, dinner is just re-heating. Thanks again, sister!

It's like you took what I have been noodling with and prototyping and put it all together perfectly! Thank you! We have hit another new season and there's always a learning curve. I had to laugh because I haven't actually done in-store grocery shopping in forever...until the other day. I was unloading the cart and commented that I had completely forgotten how to do it! I used to have it down to a science so that everything went in the cart and then on the belt in the order I wanted them bagged to make putting it away a breeze when I got home. This time was terrible! I even forgot to grab the empty cart for the checker to load bags into.

Hello from Texas. I'm so impressed with the way you have things so organized. You have every right to toot your own horn, it's amazing. I do the same thing with managing our goats, chickens, horses etc. I'd like more info on the electrolytes, I am very sensitive to the heat and get nauseous as well. I think the Gatorade cherry is a supply line issue. We have it here (north of Houston) at our Walmart. They also have packets for water to mix in. Thank you for sharing your meal plan. I plan on trying to implement something similar although it's just the two of us. Hugs from Texas.

Well here I am, on bed rest after an unplanned surgery….creating my version of your meal plan. I’m not sure if I should be saying “Thank you” or “what has she gotten me into now”!! Haha. You did great breaking down all the steps and at first I thought there is no way I can put that together. It will take forever! But I worked on just one week last night, and it really wasn’t that hard. I feel each week will get easier to put together as I did way to many steps the first time. I also tried to do meals where the leftovers from one could be used in another meal for the rest of the week. Or when I’m boiling chicken for Tuesday’s meal, I bought extra so I can make chicken salad for lunch or freeze the extra for a rainy day, AND use the broth from it in Wednesday’s meals. After doing week one, it’s clicked with me and I can’t wait to start on week 2! If you ever want to do a video on exactly how the process works in action one week. I’m sure we all would live it. From checking pantry to see what staples you need, ordering the groceries, prepping it for the week and preparing it each night. I’m visual, to actually see it in action would be great! Thanks

However, even that takes at least an hour or so because I'm trying not to duplicate what we had the previous week. I'm going to implement some ideas from your system. I also love the lists! I'm a huge cookbook collector so I'm not sure how this would work in terms of that. Maybe create a "try new recipe" day? Going to have to brainstorm! Thank you for sharing your process ;)
