"What's for dinner?!!!"

Those have got to be some of the most dreaded words of my day!!!  You’d think after 12 years of being in charge of dinner, I’d be better at it. =)  We usually go in spurts where I meal plan for a couple weeks & things run smooth. Then, meal plans run out & I don’t take the time to plan again.  That’s when things get messy.  Before I know it, it’s 6pm & the kids are asking what’s for dinner while I haven’t even thought about it!  Fast, unhealthy meals have become more frequent than they should be.  Thankfully I have a supportive, non picky husband that often makes dinner when he’s home because he loves to cook!  But still….I should be better.

Enter “Meal Prep”.  In researching this topic a little, I’ve discovered there are some things that we do & have done for a long time that are considered “Meal Prep”.  I was super excited that I already do some of them.  This video https://studio.youtube.com/video/F4427CRzIiU/edit shows one of the ways we do it.

A great article by Good Housekeeping https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/food-recipes/a28377603/how-to-meal-prep/ is a great intro to meal prepping.  Even if you aren’t ready to jump in head first, you can pick out one or two things to start working on. =)
