We make most of our meals at home. Partly for cost, partly for health, and in part because I enjoy feeding my family. While cooking, meal planning, prepping, and baking can seem like a chore, it is an important skill for my kids to see and learn from a young age.
MEAL PLANNING & PREP
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.
