Meal Plan Tips
These tips are designed to help you cut down on food prep and food waste, by using up leftovers.
- The meatloaf calls for ½ pound Italian Sausage. I would purchase 1 pound and use the remaining ½ pound in lasagna on Friday night in place of ground beef. You can get away with only ½ pound of meat in the lasagna or no meat at all!
- Use red potatoes to serve as parsley potatoes with the meatloaf on Sunday and with the chicken on Wednesday.
- No recipe for grilled cheese. Just butter bread, layer on your favorite cheese slices, toast up over medium heat, and enjoy with the soup. Serve leftovers for lunch during the week.
- This week uses A LOT of sweet potatoes. Tacos, Chili, and side dishes. I would also prep some baked sweet potatoes to use for the oatmeal and waffles for breakfast--or you could just use a can of pumpkin puree!
- On Tuesday, prep extra sweet potato taco filling and use it for burritos or tacos for lunch. If you have leftover Spanish rice, stuff that into the burritos as well--YUM!
- Friday night's lasagna is the EASIEST way to prep lasagna ever. No pre-cooking the noodles and adding ground meat is optional! Remember to use the leftover Italian sausage if desired.
∗ How to Use Meal Plans∗
Each meal plan includes a printable guide complete with a shopping list and tips to cut back on prep and minimize food waste. I also base each meal plan based on seasonal produce.
Keep in mind the following tips when using these meal plans.
- Print the meal plan to hang on your fridge and print each recipe to make your grocery list and prepare dinner! You can hit the name of each recipe on the meal plan and it will take you directly to that recipe!
- Right-click each link and hit open in a new tab so you have all the recipes open at once. Hit the jump to recipe and print off recipes. There is a check box to check off ingredients you already have. This will make shopping a bit easier.
- Be sure review meal plan for time-saving tips and key grocery lists. Keep in mind I only create the grocery lists based on dinner and assuming your spice cabinet is stocked with common spices.
