082 Seven Steps to Successful Family Meal Planning

"Food for the body is not enough. There must be food for the
soul."  ~ Dorothy Day


Meal planning can be challenging whether you're a family of 2 to
8! It's tough! Never fear, simple meal planning is here! Now you
have to be smiling! :0) 


Take time with these seven steps and watch your time in the
kitchen decrease by up to half! Seriously...more time away from
the cookin'.


The K.I.S.S. ~ Seven Steps to Successful Meal
Planning!
What does everyone like? Have each member of the family make a
list as to what they like to eat. Make it fun and a game. Ask
things like, what do you eat at your friend's house, at school, at
work, on spring break, at camp, with the "guys". Highlight/Find the
similarities on ALL the lists. Make a MASTER list of all the LIKES.
This is the list you will work from every week. Include categories
like main course/proteins, vegetables, starches/breads, dessert,
fruits. From the Master List, create your weekly meals by using the
recipes YOU know how to cook. Choose ONE new recipe a week to
introduce to the family; however, remember to use the Master list
of LIKES. Schedule leftovers and night outs. Maybe Wednesday and
Sunday are good leftover nights. And Friday is a night out. Do what
works for your family. Rinse and Repeat from #3, the MASTER LIST of
LIKES.

Food will not only become food for your body, but for you mind
and spirit too!
