avery laurenhow i meal plan & grocery shop like a pro 🛒 meal planning and grocery shopping can both feel a bit daunting but ive found that having a system makes a huuuuge difference. the goal is to do both efficiently so that you save time throughout the week (spending less time figuring out what to eat, fewer forgotten ingredients, less trips back to the store). here’s my process: + step one: meal plan + make my grocery list i start by checking my fridge and pantry to see what i already have and what needs to be used up, then build my meals around those ingredients (using my meal planner that you can get for free on my website!). i also try to choose meals that share ingredients so i can buy less and use everything i buy. + step two: grocery shop with my list i shop with the list i just created so i’m only buying what i actually need and so that i don’t forget anything. i also recommend having reusable totes and produce bags to stay organized! + step three: put everything away + stay organized put everything away the second you get home! i try to keep my fridge and pantry organized so i can easily see what i have, what needs to be used up, and what i’ll need on my next grocery trip. + step four: wash produce i always wash my fruits and veggies the day i shop. it takes a little extra time upfront, but it means that when I’m ready to cook during the week, i can just grab what i need and start chopping. try it out and please share any tips i may have missed!! #groceryshopwithme #mealplanning #mealplanner #groceryshopping #groceryshoppingtips
