I’m looking to have tasty and balanced food while maintaining a reasonable budget and being more organised.
I know how to cook. I already have tasty yet not complicated meals I’m use to make but I never needed to be organised about it before.

So I decided to start to write menu in advance, do a some meal prepping probably a bit of batch cooking.
I found resources online to start following a plan but maybe you have advices for the beginner that I am.

Thank you!

    It can help to have designated meal types for each day. E.g. taco Tuesdays, pasta Wednesdays, etc.

    Doesn’t have to be the same meal each week but narrows down the choices making decisions and planning easier.

      I see. I was thinking, maybe I could plan two weeks of meals and rotate them. Then, I would need to change this plan 4 times a year to keep with seasonal ingredients. But I felt overwhelm by the idea of finding so many recipe. But actually, I could do whatever the season :

      • Monday rice
      • Tuesday tradional meal
      • Wesnesday pasta
      • Thursday exotic cuisine
      • Friday potatoes

      It would be easy to narrow traditional recipe to seasonal ingredients now. Wow… It seems so easy now.
