Why Should I create a Meal Plan?
Creating a meal plan can seem like a waste of time, or hinder the flow of creativity unleashed when creating meals on the fly but a meal plan does the opposite.
Here are some of the reasons why you should consider creating
a meal plan:
Save Time
Set up meal preps ahead of time for even a week's worth of meals. If Monday's breakfast is oats, then why not make Monday's breakfast overnight oats?
Incorporate Variety
Budget-friendly eating doesn't mean sacrificing variety; try peanut butter porridge and organize themed dinner nights for excitement. Enjoy a variety of meals from Mexican, Chinese, and Mediterranean.
Eat Healthier
Eating a juicy burger with fries sounds epic. But switching to healthier alternatives may increase your life span and keep you in an abundance of health wealth.
Reduce Food Waste
Cooking on the fly sometimes robs you of the opportunity to prepare a meal with an Ingredient that is trapped in the back of your fridge and sitting on its last legs. With a meal plan, you can seamlessly incorporate Ingredients that are headed for the bin.
Save Money
Less food waste equals more money saved.
Pro-tip: Researching meal ideas ahead of time can help you cook meals that do not break the bank.
Prevent Impulse Eating
Sometimes we eat not because we are hungry but because we are trying to fill an empty space. Having a meal plan can help us stay motivated to break this habit.
