[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is my first week trying to plan our meals and it is a lot harder than I thought. Kudos to you men and women who do this on a regular. Do you use a spreadsheet or planner? I want to be sure that I'm not replicating the same meal too often and that I'm shopping for what's on sale but its time consuming! Please tell me it gets easier and faster[/quote] I don't worry about cost, so sales are not an issue for me. Yet at the same time, I dislike wasting food. So if I buy broccoli and don't use it all one night, then the next day I make something where I can use it up. For me THAT is where meal-planning is useful. I make a little list on my iPhone. Before that I'd write it out on a scrap of paper. Between DH and I we probably have about 35-40 things we make regularly, so the only worry about replicating a meal comes from eating food that's in season. [/quote]
