In a nutshell, meal planning is sorting out the "what to cook?" confusion for a week (or 10 days/month – however you like it). Once you have the plan ready, you need to shop the essential items to execute the plan in the most organized manner. Okay, we make the process even simpler for you – follow these quick three steps and you are sorted!
1. PLAN
Mondays are usually the most hectic for almost everyone and you want to keep away from stressing over cooking meals that take longer. Whereas more often than not, Fridays are meant to have fun and you love to indulge in some elaborated and exotic dishes to welcome the weekend the most scrumptious way. But with meal planning, you can enjoy a Friday-like meal on Mondays as well. All you need to do is make a list of things you would like to eat in a week, and thus preparing a shopping list to move on to the next step.
2. SHOP
It won't take you more than few hours and before you know it, you'll be bringing home the comfort for a week. And with even the fresh groceries available online now, you can well bring that comfort at your doorstep too. Wow, life seems to have become so much easier, doesn't it?
3. PREPARE
And finally – prep, prep, prep! Chop the fruits and veggies, marinate the chicken/mutton, prepare the salad dressing or anything you feel can save your cooking time later. The entire preparation for a week won't take more than an hour and you will thank yourself for taking out those 60 minutes every time you cook.
