How to Meal Plan
Meal planning for two can feel tricky, especially when schedules are busy and it’s tempting to grab takeout or repeat the same meals. A simple plan can make dinners easier and more enjoyable throughout the week.
- Look at your week ahead and note which nights you’ll eat at home.
- Plan a meal or two in advance for busy evenings when you’ll get home late.
- Choose recipes that can be rearranged if plans change.
- Cook extra on some nights and use leftovers for another dinner or lunch.
- Use a one week meal plan for two to keep dinners organized and stress-free.
Side Dishes to Complete Your Meal
Once you have your meal plan put together, choose a side dish to serve with the recipes listed above. Side dishes should include potatoes or rice along with one or two veggies. A tossed salad with homemade ranch salad dressing is always nice too.
