Meal planning and prepping tips
If you're new here...
Every week, I share a free meal plan for you to use the following week. You'll have seven main dish recipes, along with a few extras and of course dessert.
Typically the weekly meal plans are named by number of the week and date. For example, if the plan is for the first week of January, I'll name it Weekly Meal Plan 1 - Jan 3-9. Next year the plans will be updated for the corresponding dates and tasty new recipes!
Don't forget - if you have a busy day and plan on eating out, just drop a day off the menu and adjust the meal plan to fit YOUR busy life!
Here are some shortcuts and tips for this week's menu!
- Taco Spaghetti lasts 3-4 days in the fridge and leftovers freeze great!

Slow Cooker Meatballs and Gravy

Crockpot meatballs and gravy are basically a hug on a plate! These little flavor bombs simmer away in a rich, savory gravy that makes the whole house smell like you've been cooking all day (spoiler: you haven't).
