Every 2 weeks I create what I call a “Meal Plan”. I go through all my recipe sources, cookbooks, personal lists, Pinterest and my app Copy Me That and pick 8-10 meals for next 2 weeks. Yes, I realize that there are more than 8-10 nights in 2 weeks however we eat leftovers some nights, maybe my husband and I will have date night another and then there is also a night for Pizza so 8-10 usually gets us through 2 weeks. Also we don’t schedule dinners for certain nights ahead of time because with 3 kids under 4 our lives are pretty crazy and you never know what’s going to happen day to day. If you haven’t seen my meal plans before you should know my husband and I mostly follow Keto. If the recipes below call for rice we use cauliflower, if it calls for flour we use almond, if it calls for pasta my husband and I just eat the meat and our kids eat the pasta.
This meal plan I did add a couple favorites for those carb eaters 😉 Including my favorite one-pan chicken parm! So easy and so good!
Here are the dinners I picked this time. If you click on the dinner below it will take you to the recipe.
Best Ever Instant Pot Beef Stew
One Pan Chicken Parmesan Pasta Skillet
The Best Instant Pot Stuffed Peppers for Clean Eating
Shopping List: HERE
I am on my way to do the shopping now for this list so I don’t have a total. My lists usually come to $100-$150 and that’s with getting other essentials.
Let me know if you have any questions!
