Meal Plan Tips
These tips are designed to help you cut down on food prep and food waste, by using up leftovers.
- This week uses a lot of summer produce like zucchini, peppers, eggplant, and tomatoes. Whether homegrown, purchased at the farmer's market, or grocery store, everything should be relatively easy to find in season and hopefully on sale (or free from your garden.)
- On Sunday, save half the meatballs and 3 cups of the spaghetti sauce. Use the leftover sauce for Eggplant Parmesan and the meatballs for meatballs subs later in the week.
- Make a large Greek salad on Sunday (or tossed salad of your choice) and serve throughout the week as desired.
- For the zucchini fries, there are directions on the post for using the oven or air fryer.
- Serve bread with the Ratatouille. You can use leftover sub buns toasted or prepare or purchase Italian bread. If you have leftover Italian bread, use it to make Air Fryer Pizzas for lunches.
- Friday's pizza is one of my favorites--be sure to enjoy it while the tomatoes are fresh!
- On Saturday, use any leftover vegetables to make veggie kabobs. Leftover eggplant, peppers, zucchini, squash, onions, etc.
- Use Kalamata olives for both for Greek salad and Ratatouille. Any leftovers, use them to make chickpea salad for lunches.
- Use mozzarella for pizza and eggplant parm. Feel free to replace the provolone with fresh mozzarella if you have enough for the subs.
∗ 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.
