The beginning of each year brings a flurry of excitement as we commit to making healthy changes. We all know that meal planning saves us money, time, and stress, but for a variety of reasons, meal planning remains a struggle for many of us.
If creating and following a meal plan feels impossible to you, we have the perfect opportunity to make 2017 the year that meal planning becomes a part of your life! Join us for Plan to Eat’s Make Ahead Meal Plan Challenge.
The Make Ahead Meal Plan Challenge is Plan to Eat’s 30-day challenge to help you start your own meal planning routine, and it’s completely free.
Throughout January you will see how to make freeze-ahead meals for one (or more!) weeks of dinners and have extras in the freezer. Imagine not having the stress of dinner for the entire week, but still get home-cooked meals on the table! On top of that, you’ll have backup meals in your freezer that you can pull out whenever you’re too busy to cook
We have provided recipes for the first two weeks from the book Fix, Freeze, Feast, and the second two weeks from 100 Days of Real Food. All of these tried and true recipes are perfect for preparing ahead of time so that you can avoid mealtime stress during the week.
You can also join the Make Ahead Meal Plan Challenge Facebook group to discuss tips and tricks to make your kitchen super-efficient and get everyone fed.
This video will show you how the challenge works:
