I’ve recently discovered the amazing simplicity of a rotating meal plan.

If you don’t know what that is, let me tell you, it’s life changing! You choose 3-5 meals per week and schedule them out for 4-6 weeks. This plan repeats over and over until you decide its time to change things up.

For my family, I planned out 4 meals per week for 4 weeks. I love this plan because I only have to decide on 2-3 meals to add each week. This is where I have the opportunity to schedule a date night out, a left over night or whatever new recipe I want to try.

If you’re stumped on what to add to your meal plans, here’s a great list of meals and recipes for inspiration. Many of these are ridiculously easy too!

36: How to Meal Plan When You Hate Making Decisions – an honest talk on real life in my kitchen Meant to Bloom

If one of the biggest stressors in your life right now is that dinner time dilemma, then this is for you. Dinner time can be so much easier than you’re letting it be and it all starts with a foolproof meal plan. I used to let the dinner time dilemma send me into a spiral of depressive symptoms and anxiety attacks. Then I started getting serious about meal planning. Having the decisions made beforehand – before you’ve already had a long day, before you’re nearing burn out, before you’re hangry – can have a profound impact on the way you approach preparing dinner for your family. Before we dive in, I want you to know a few things: Dinner isn’t that big of a deal. It’s not even the most important meal of the day. Your value and worth as a mother has nothing to do with how Pin-Worthy your dinner is. You don’t have to get fancy or provide an impressive variety of dinners each week. Frozen meals are fine. Your husband isn’t going to leave you over a dinner that was easy for you to cook – and if he would, you should let him leave, he’s a jerk. Your family wants you to be happy, more than they want a “perfect dinner plan” to be perfectly executed.
