Spend Less and Eat Better using a Meal Plan - Cooking at Home
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 лип 2024
- The hardest part about cooking dinner is figuring out what to make and it's every single day. My mom, Liz, is the original Food Nanny. She established The Food Nanny books to "rescue" dinner from tired and discouraged parents and would-be cooks.
She created a 2 week meal plan which is the perfect plan for creating a well stocked kitchen. With this plan, you can easily prepare two weeks of dinner with very few trips to the grocery store.
It saves you money and time and really helps your family come together around the dinner plan so that everyone is a part of it. It takes the complication of dinner out the door. It helps your kids to feel excited about a delicious dinner that evening.
We hope you'll try this in your own home! Let us know how it goes!

FAQ: IS KAMUT® FLOUR GLUTEN FREE?
Kamut® flour is NOT gluten-free, but has often been found to affect people differently than typical flour gluten. Some studies have shown that Kamut® flour and products might be more digestible for people who experience symptoms of gluten intolerance.
DISCLAIMER:
The Food Nanny DOES NOT claim Kamut® flour is okay for people with gluten intolerance issues or Celiac disease. Many customers with one or the other have commented that the gluten in Kamut® flour does not affect them. Individual results may vary.

Love this so much. Meal planning has always been such a struggle for me, especially with two young adult sons and a husband that works crazy hours. Thank you so much for your generosity & congratulations to whoever ends up winning 🥇 @fl_mum
This plan works, makes it easy if someone else has to make dinner it’s all ready to go.

My mom always cooked and had a well stocked pantry and freezer to the best they could afford. We helped in cooking and clean up. We didn’t have an “eat out” option. When I was married in 1985 my husband promised if I cooked he’d always do the dishes. And he has continued to do so almost 40 years later
💜💕💜
Thank you for your encouragement to others!
Oh, thank you so much for your story!!
With a very stressful job, kids in activities and just life, I have found solace in making dinner for my family. I put on my headphones and chop, dice, and sauté the stresses away. 😊 I used to make all the excuses in the world to not cook and get takeout but, I gained a lot of weight and was in the worst health of my life. Learning to love cooking for my family taught me healthier and more sustainable habits. It tastes so much better too!
So true, right?! Even with a busy life, cooking our own meals helps us be healthier and unwind. It's okay if we make it simple. The time together is what matters most! Thank you!!
I was raised by this philosophy too 🎉❤ I have a meal theme every night too 🎉 it’s always made my life so much more enjoyable and less stressful 🎉
Fantastic!
Yes, I've loved this from the very start! I've meal planned for a long time thinking I had it and would get frustrated because I'd get stuck. Then I got the OG FN book and loved how the meal planning was done and have followed it since. Even my teens and young 20's kids use and follow it. Thank you for creating this and teaching us. ❤
You got this! So glad to hear that it's working so well. Love all these great comments!
Many thanks for all of your posts across UA-cam, Instagram, and the fantastic recipes posted on The Food Nanny website. While I haven't quite got the meal planning down for our household of two, I'm working on it! Of course, that includes ordering all the FN tools and cookbooks to make it lots more fun in the kitchen! My husband recognizes your voice now when I'm watching your videos and also recognizes your shipments. 😂 It's safe to say he loves eating every FN and Kamut recipe I've followed. He also supports all the FN bling in our kitchen. Now, if I'd just put the kitchen to bed every night! 🤭 Thanks again, Lizi and Liz and all of your wonderful family. @qndmabry (Deborah)
Oh, wow! Love to hear this! It makes it all so worthwhile when we hear that it’s truly helping you! ✨❤️✨
Yes! I totally agree! I also do a 2 week meal plan! I have all of your and your mom recipe books and we adore them! They are so easy to use and for whatever reason, they leave me with calm, instead of feeling overwhelmed. So thank you so very much! I'll forever say the chicken tacos are my go to for dinner! They are extra special! @stylinbigsky
Kitchen Zen! 🧘♀️❤️
I love the FN meal plan concept and recipes. Thank you!
SO glad you like them!
It's worth it!
So worth it!!
AMEN! Meeting the OG Food Nanny, getting her cookbook, learning the meal planning changed my life. Changed everything for my family. I share this cookbook with all my favorite peeps and tell them how this changed my life. All these years later there are still so many of the recipes I have never made. I am so glad you are making more videos of these recipes. Get one for every family you know, this book and plan makes it so easy for everyone!
Love that!
@ruthiepeterson
I have been watching for six years and my cookbooks of yours of well-loved and used 💕💕💕
Excellent! The dirtier and more worn the cookbook, the more we know your family is eating well! :D
Great advice
Thanks!!
I just love everything about this. Everything you say, share and inspire with ✨
Thank you so much!! That makes me so happy!! ❤️😊
Absolutely true about meal planning. It is such a relief to hve those plans and if you go out for dinner you get to just move your plan forward a day. Wahoo!!

Love it!! The best part for me is seeing other people jump on board and really enjoy cooking with and for their families!
I've never utilized your meal plans online. I'm going to this summer. Thank you for providing these and all the hard work you put into them!
Oh, that makes me happy!! 🙌🙌
@tobileidy
I remember watching Food Nanny back when I was first married! I would print the meal planner sheet and it was such a life saver! So thankful!!
An original Fannie! Mom will love this! 😊❤️
Hi! This is so helpful, thank you for sharing your wisdom on this! 💛 Im trying to get better with planning for my family,and I’m wondering about meal planning for breakfast and lunch as well. Do you have any tips for planning breakfast and lunch for the week in addition to the dinner meal planning?
Thank you! 💛
You got this! One thing that helps for breakfast is that on weekdays, we have the same breakfast almost every day. It gets us all out the door faster and I know what to stick and prep. Weekends, we pitch in together on favorite breakfasts depending on how much time we have.
I can’t find your mom’s second cook book? Where can I purchase it? 😭
This looks amazing! What do I "NEED" to get started on the menu plan?
The OG Food Nanny Book will give you the overall system and ingredients breakdown as well as the shopping list and a suggested schedule - or come to our website and see our free plans there as well. See below :D
@thefoodnanny www.thefoodnanny.com/blogs/blog/weekly-meal-planning-for-a-family?_pos=3&_psq=meal&_ss=e&_v=1.0
I have the hardest time deciding what to make
The plan takes away the problem of “too many” options. It really helps!
@@thefoodnanny you are so right. I think that’s my main issue now that you mention it
Even a single lady can do that 😢art
Hoping it makes dinner a little easier for everyone. 🤗❤️
@amybythebay definitely need to meal plan… this is so helpful!
