Meal Planning for Two

Meal Planning for two; WOW! That all I can say, it’s tough, especially for two people that eat different things. Today I did a ton of meal prepping it felt like, but very minimal was for myself. My other half has decided to start making healthier choices, which means for me as the Shopper, the Chef and the Momma Bear; I have to have a house prepared for more healthy habits or everyone will eat all the healthy food I’ve prepped for myself. (Lesson learned from last week)

The first part of meal planning for two is understanding everyone is different, my meal planning consists of making a meal plan and prepping and going from there. I pack my lunch each day based on my meal plan and know what I’m eating.

The other half, shoots from the hip, making it up as he goes but tracking at all in his app to make sure he stays within his plan.

When planning for two, the basics are key. Think of the simple things that can be comingled between the plans. Yogurt, eggs, carrots, oatmeal, chicken, bananas, apples, string cheese, wraps.

How you use the food in your plan doesn’t have to be the same. These are core foods that I buy every week and make sure we always have in the house as healthy options. Now just buy more of those to make health habits for consistent options for everyone.

Here’s to another week of crushing healthy habits with the fam.
