Food

We prepare the majority of our meals at home. This is partly because it is cost-effective, partly because it is healthier, and partly because I enjoy cooking for my family. Although the tasks involved in meal planning, preparation, and cooking may appear tedious initially, with practice and consistency, they become second nature. These steps are crucial to maintaining a reasonable food budget and healthier food options for our family.

Step by step tips for family meal planning and prep. We share how to make a list of your favourite meals, collect recipes, check what you have on hand, check sales, pick meals, shop, and prep ahead.
