The Plan to Eat Podcast

This week, we cover three scenarios where we hear meal planning hesitation: people who hate cooking, people who cook for one, and people managing food allergies or dietary restrictions. For each one, we dig into what actually makes it hard and share practical ways meal planning can make it a whole lot easier instead of adding to the stress.

We also cover some kitchen confessions on how we shortcut recipes and share your feedback on those confessions too! Enjoy!

We're back! In this episode, we recap our summer meal planning, what shifted for each of us, and how we're resetting our approach heading into Fall. We make a case for doing a pantry clean-out now, why Fall is actually a smart time to stock up on holiday baking staples, and how to use what you already have to stretch your grocery budget a little further this season.

We also geek out a little over our favorite planning tools, from paper planners to sticky notes, before wrapping up with a rundown of everything new in the Plan to Eat V4 app, including new customization features, recipe photos on the planner, and some shopping list updates we think you're going to love. Enjoy!

This is a replay episode, and with grocery prices where they are right now, we thought it deserved another listen.

In this episode, we share what our meal plans looked like during a week of strict budgeting, and walk through all the ways we cut costs without sacrificing good food. We talk about shopping your freezer and pantry before you make a list, carrying one ingredient across multiple meals, keeping your recipe list simple, and going into the store with a focused mindset.

If you've been feeling the pinch at the grocery store lately, this one is full of practical ideas you can put to use this week.
