I'm 18 and new to adulting, learning to cook for myself has been a lot easier when I plan ahead. this video is very helpful for someone like me who lives on notes.
As someone with ADHD, meal planning has always been hard. I usually just buy what I'm in the mood for and end up wasting money. Your video has actually made it all click for me. I love that you broke it up into the smallest of steps. This is SO helpful. :)
ADHD made me come here. Same buying what I’m in mood for and end up eating something else because it takes too long to cook it and yeah Im wasting money
this week i was searching and asking in facebook groups how to plan my meals and i didnt find good enough answers. and today this video popped-up in my recommendations and i feel so lucky!!! this information is so useful for me because i felt so lost with my planing, all my fridge is full of groceries and i find it so hard to plan what to cook. thank you so much!!
My favorite part of this is "just keep the list" and after a while you'll have a nice stack and you can just easily reuse an entire list. (And all the work is done!)
Jessica, i cannot tell you how happy this video has made me! I have watched numerous TH-cam videos on meal planning alone and ideas on how to get organized to meal plan and I've tried the month calendar and listing the meals but then not knowing where to put the ingredients so I know what to get at the store. Every other idea i have tried and it hasn't felt right or just hasn't "clicked" obviously since i have not stuck with any of them... So I absolutely love your idea! I'm literally sitting here watching your videos at 12:30 in the morning too excited to actually go to sleep right now. I cannot wait to begin tomorrow morning and meal plan for this coming week and then grocery shop tomorrow for it as well. Thank you so much for making an end up video and explaining step by step with examples :-) and even though I don't have kids yet it's nice I can tweak this for myself and when I have guests over and for my family currently.
You're good at this. I have lived solo for three years and for so long I got used to eating in restaurants or cafeterias. It saved me the trouble of prepping however it proved to be really costly and unpredictable when it comes to budget. This is helpful. Thanks!
So satisfying!! I have all of this stuff because I'm obsessed with planning, bullet journaling, and organizing. I am currently organizing and cleaning out my pantry, fridge and cupboards so I'm definitely going to start doing this tomorrow!
Wish I could give you a double thumbs up!! I started meal planning about a month ago from the tips you have here & my life is so much easier now!!! I have cut out running to the grocery store everyday after work and am saving so much $$. It does take a little time to meal plan, but now that I have my routine down, it's not a problem. Thanks so much!!
I love how you talked about how good it feels to come home and share a meal together. That is so true and so inspiring to be reminded of that. Thank you!!!
Wow, AMAZING. I deal with an illness with symptoms of brain fog. Your method is so well done and will be Extremely helpful to me. Not complicated or confusing at all. Thank you so much.
This had to be the simplest meal planning video I’ve come across. Thank you! My search is over. You seem to think the way most of us think and you know how to explain things in a way that make perfect sense. Everything fell into place for me and finally I think I can stop my continuous random grocery shopping and incomplete/frustrating meals. You are a Godsend. 🌸
You have saved my life. I don't like to cook but I want to meal plan and save money. Your video was so informative and I feel confident to start meal planning and prepping. thank you so much!
This is a great video for any person managing a house and responsible for planning meals. I am a mom of twin three year olds and I loved this as a refreshing new look. Thanks!
Three year old twins! Wow that's amazing all on it's own. Yes you're right this was a great video. I don't know where my grocery budget would be without meal planning.
Wow! I love this video so much! I've actually watched it 2 or 3 times. It's September and my goal for this year is to start meal planning so that I can take that "What should we eat tonight" stress and that "Going to the grocery store AGAIN" out of my life! Love your simple simple and common sense layout of how to do this well! Thank you!
Absolutely loved the video... most times when I click on a meal planning video, it never really covers the "how to" part and only the "why I meal plan" part. By far, the most informative meal planning video... thank you Jessica
This is the video that taught me how to meal plan so long ago and I keep going back to watch it over and over again just because I love it. It’s as inspiring as the first time I watched it.
Yeah, my mom and I usually buy stuff every now and then at the store. Even though I list down what we needed on the grocery list, most of the time something was being left out! This was a good suggestion and hopefully, I could make use of this at home! Thanks!
thank you SO much for this video! I have a nine year old step daughter who is very picky, and doesn't eat a lot. Also, as new stay-at-home mom, this helped me so much, as to how I should feed a family properly.
I have been meal-planning and creating inventory sheets for shopping and cooking for years but you gave me some new ideas I can incorporate as well. Thanks
thank you so much! I have a lot of stress, a toddler and 2 teens lol. My mind is always full and I have some anxiety but I have tried and tried to slow my mind down enough to meal plan because I think it would help my stress! But I always get all confused and tore up about it and give up lol. you did this so simply and idk...for some reason I understood it better?! if that makes sense. glad I came across your video :)
Omg ..I feel so stress free bcuz this is by far the best video ever...this needs to be on top....my mom didn't teach me anything about family life😔. I learned so much. You just made a different in a family. Thank you👌👍❤️
Very helpful. My life is so chaotic and I am not naturally organized. I needed someone to literally paint a picture of how I can meal plan, and you did exactly that. Thank you!
Thank you!!!! I don't have a good way of planning meals. This is perfect. I know this should be common sense but I struggle. I have a picky eater and I find myself struggling like you said having things but nothing that I can use! Trying this today!!!
Thank you so much!! You explained everything so simply. I believe I can now put my simple steps together & make a meal plan & not feel overwhelmed. God bless you!! 💕
I was watching this video thinking I can send this to my daughter who is at universiy. Love the way you can collect Coupons in the US, we only have Tesco over here in the UK and somethimes there are extra points to gain at Sainsburys. Like the way you plan around these special offers and coupons, I do that aswell. At some stage you will have 4 different mealplan for each season and then just rotate them. Cheers.
I like to get ideas from the ads of my grocery stores. The pictures help me visually to help me decide on what to eat. Coming it up from nothing is difficult.
New subscriber from the Virgin Islands 🇻🇮, I’m a mom of a 10yr old and my Significant other in the home. And we love home cook meals. I have a happy planner recipe book that I have a few recipes in. I haven’t mastered yet my weekly meals but after seeing our video this will make it much easier
Another thing is that you might want to note on special ingredients what you need it for. (In my case because I can see being tired of shopping and saying, oh I really don't need capers and then getting home and realizing that I needed them for a recipe I haven't tried yet)
Thank you for making this video, I have struggled with this concept for years. You broke it down exactly how I needed to see it. This will be a gamechanger!
SisiSamone Curlz oh please!!! i bought mine from Michael's a few weeks ago and i absolutely LOVE it! i cannot wait to go back and custom make and buy one for recipes!
I absolutely love this idea!!! Meal planning is so difficult whenever my step-daughter is around because she typically doesn't like what my husband and I make, so I have to stretch far to figure out what to cook.
Sherry Gustafson Mine always said stuff like that too. It was so she could absolve herself of all responsibility of staying home from chasing men and actually cook for us. She wasn't happy about being saddled with us kids. We all left home at a very early age & pretty much brought ourselves up. I ate some strange concoctions. She had no idea what I was eating. She was never around. No wonder I never knew how to eat healthy, nutritious food all my life.
Love this video! I'm just meal planning for myself, but you've laid it out in such an easy and thorough way that I can just apply your instructions to my own needs. Thank you for explaining it so well and making it look so easy!
Yes, Meal planning and grocery shopping are not natural talents. Its something we all learn and improve on over time. I hope you enjoy this process and find it helpful to your budget! :-)
I've been doing something very similar to this for years and it works so well for me! However, I go shopping every Sunday. My hubby even goes with me to help with the bagging and lifting! I can't stand not having it planned out. I own a business and the last thing I want to do when I get home after a crazy day is try to figure out what's for dinner!! I love the printables and I think I'll give them a try!
Great tips!! I have meal planned for years and it's so great to do because you never have to wonder what's for dinner or do I have the stuff to make it, totally makes life easier. Tyfs
I just decided to meal plan as I just became a stay at home mom and I got time to actually cook. I print a sheet and watched this video I just realized I printed the same meal planning printable hhhh.. This has helped me a lot. Thanks so much
I have been trying to meal plan and really get and order but after watching this video you make it so doable clear and effective thx soo much I have a better understanding of meal planning and success thx to you
I have been wanting to meal plan for a while now but felt so overwhelmed by it not knowing where to start or anything and this video was easy to follow wonderful tips and has let me realize that I don't have to be super mom to meal plan. Thanks !
Thank you so much for this wonderful video!! I am a relatively new mom (3 years in), and I still struggle with meal planning. This was so helpful, the practical tips were so so great, I feel like I've got a good idea of where to start! Thank you!! :)
Thanks for the ideas and for sharing the whole process. I feel so much better when I meal plan but I was feeling like I needed to cook fancier stuff. I appreciate the idea of just starting and only doing one new thing a week.
I literally do the same thing that you used to do with your meals!!! Which I'm so tired of doing things that way. So I'm definitely going to give meal planning a try! :) Thanks so much for this video!
Thank you for all these ideas ....I was struggling on how to meal plan for long time ..! Finally you solve what I am looking for thank you so much.. I know this will really work out for me and my family.. God Bless you
Going to show this to my daughter who is starting university in the autumn. She's going to have to budget her money and she's also vegan as well. Great ideas I ought to follow it as well
wow! i am so glad i clicked on this video! you really broke every step down and made it look so easy! this is the best meal planning video i have ever seen! excited to start planning now finally!!!! thank you!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I have a cookbook that did a be your own taco stand recipe. It actually uses potatoes as the base but you then can add beans for protein. And frying the tortillas. I love it. Just another taco variation.
I have watched so many meal planning videos and tried to plan a couple of times. I am one that to this day...I walk through the store and try to figure out what we are going to eat this week....then end up eating out about 3 or 4 times a week...then our money is GONE. Grrrrr.... I need help. I am 53 and it's hard to change. But your video makes since!! Thank you! I feel like I can do this. I just need to start small and go slow, and WHEN I mess up....start over. THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for sharing your organization skills. You are amazingly logical in the way you budget and meal plan. I love your videos!! Keep them coming please!
Loved this video. I appreciate you showing us this. Meal planning always seemed so confusing. This makes alot of sense. Im planning to plan ahead so i can use this idea
This is so awesome! I'm very lucky and have a boyfriend who does a wonderful job meal planning (he even does most of the cooking) :) We are both lazy about doing inventory before grocery shopping though, I think your ideas will be very helpful to us!
This was SO helpful! thank you so much! I just moved out from my parents house, moved with my boyfriend together and we are students at University, our study takes us most of the day (7am - 11pm) so I don't have time to think of what to buy and spend hours in the supermarket. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH! I will copy the whole system 😁👍🏼 much love from Germany 🇩🇪 ❤️
great video, very well explained! I've watched a lot of meal planning videos and living in France I wonder....people in USA only cook dinners?? what about lunches?
Unfortunately, most people eat out on their 30-60 min lunch break from work and the kids eat school lunches. Some people take/send lunches to work/school, but most of us don't have time to go home, let alone cook lunch at home. Those of us who stay home/are home with little ones will probably not eat out, but some do
this was great, I may try this. I just spent about an hour and. half writing down new recipes and ingredients I'll need and I could already tell I dislike the system lol so it's funny you uploaded this today. I'm mostly wanting to make sure we are eating healthier, so meal planning is very important to me to be successful in this year. this is a bit time consuming, but I definitely see how one night of prep makes the rest of the nights soooo much easier to tackle. ty for posting!
This is great for people who what to just have healthier home cooked meals or even for diets. I think at first it can seem like an overwhelming process, but after a few time of doing a meal plan it will become a lot easier. Now days I can't live with out it. I think you will find it very beneficial. Good luck!
Thanks for responding to our comments and uploading this video..how just how do you find time to do ALL you do ? videos, planning, etc - loved this video and your suggestions !
I LOVE mealplanning, and am really looking forward to living on my own and being able to do it every week ^^ Great video, I picked up some tips I did not know about before, and that is the wisdom of experience!
that was very helpful I have 2 kids and twins on the way so I'm trying to make my life easier. I want to start meal planning this was a great big help for me.To figure out how to do it. Thank You 😀
I like the plan and shopping list idea but, I spend the weekend cooking for the week. I do it as some times I don't feel like cooking and this way we don't get take out to often. Thanks for sharing
You explained this very well. My problem with meal planning is the follow-through, I never seem to want to make what I plan. 🥴 BTW Dollar Tree has those little dry-erase boards with a clip-on marker as well, but if one buys one, it might be a good idea to run a line of super glue around the outside since it likes to fall apart. Or maybe that's just me, and I'm too hard on my boards! Lol.
This is perfect. When I saw the length I was thinking oh noooo lol. But I watched the whole thing and I enjoyed every minute! Thank you so much for this.
I'm 18 and new to adulting, learning to cook for myself has been a lot easier when I plan ahead. this video is very helpful for someone like me who lives on notes.
Adulting hehe I love it ...welcome 😂
That is awesome that you are being so responsible at the age 18! Thanks for your comment! 😊
So, I stumbled upon this years later. How've you found adulting?

I always come back and rewatch this video to get back on track. The best meal planning video on TH-cam! Thank you for sharing!
I've watched a LOT of meal plan videos and this has been one of the best ones. Very simple, and felt very 'real'. Loved it!
Awe, you are so sweet to say that! I am really glad it was easy to follow. xo
NOAH YOU KING
I love real. Real is best
I totally agree !
I was going to say the same thing. I've watched so many, but this one is very helpful!

I have been meal-planning and creating inventory sheets for shopping and cooking for years but you gave me some new ideas I can incorporate as well. Thanks
Awesome job! I'm so impressed. I've been cooking and meal planning for 40 years and I still learned a thing or two...or a dozen... :)

Thank you!!!! I don't have a good way of planning meals. This is perfect. I know this should be common sense but I struggle. I have a picky eater and I find myself struggling like you said having things but nothing that I can use! Trying this today!!!
Probably the most helpful and realistic meal planning I’ve ever seen! Thank you so much!!
Thank you so much!! You explained everything so simply. I believe I can now put my simple steps together & make a meal plan & not feel overwhelmed. God bless you!! 💕
I was watching this video thinking I can send this to my daughter who is at universiy.
Love the way you can collect Coupons in the US, we only have Tesco over here in the UK and somethimes there are extra points to gain at Sainsburys. Like the way you plan around these special offers and coupons, I do that aswell. At some stage you will have 4 different mealplan for each season and then just rotate them. Cheers.
I love this video! So real and down to earth feeling. Very realistic way of planning. And your voice is very calming 💗
I like to get ideas from the ads of my grocery stores. The pictures help me visually to help me decide on what to eat. Coming it up from nothing is difficult.

One of the best filmed and simplest explained meal plan vids! Also the print outs are cute, which never hurts :)
Well, That makes my day to hear that! I am happy you liked it! :-)
Thank you for making this video, I have struggled with this concept for years. You broke it down exactly how I needed to see it. This will be a gamechanger!
This video was really helpful! Can you do a video on how you setup your Create365 Recipe Book. I just got one and cant wait to use it!
SisiSamone Curlz oh please!!! i bought mine from Michael's a few weeks ago and i absolutely LOVE it! i cannot wait to go back and custom make and buy one for recipes!
I absolutely love this idea!!! Meal planning is so difficult whenever my step-daughter is around because she typically doesn't like what my husband and I make, so I have to stretch far to figure out what to cook.
I know how you feel! Kids can be picky. Meal planning becomes more difficult when my son is out for the summer. :-) #adultingishard
@Sherry Gustafson haha same thing my grandma says
Sherry Gustafson
Mine always said stuff like that too. It was so she could absolve herself of all responsibility of staying home from chasing men and actually cook for us.

Super excited to try this! My husband and I were just talking this evening about needing to reel in what I am spending and wasting on groceries.
Yes, Meal planning and grocery shopping are not natural talents. Its something we all learn and improve on over time. I hope you enjoy this process and find it helpful to your budget! :-)
One of the best videos I have ever seen on meal planning
I've been doing something very similar to this for years and it works so well for me! However, I go shopping every Sunday. My hubby even goes with me to help with the bagging and lifting!

I love the printables and I think I'll give them a try!
I agree that I could never go back to NOT meal planning. The benefits are just to good to go back now. :-)
You are AWESOME! You made this so simple and easy to follow along without making me feel like I have to do SO much to meal plan! Thank you!
Great tips!! I have meal planned for years and it's so great to do because you never have to wonder what's for dinner or do I have the stuff to make it, totally makes life easier. Tyfs

Wow! Thanks!, you young people are so smart these days!
This is so awesome! I'm very lucky and have a boyfriend who does a wonderful job meal planning (he even does most of the cooking) :) We are both lazy about doing inventory before grocery shopping though, I think your ideas will be very helpful to us!
That is so awesome your husband is involved! He is a keeper :-)
This was SO helpful! thank you so much! I just moved out from my parents house, moved with my boyfriend together and we are students at University, our study takes us most of the day (7am - 11pm) so I don't have time to think of what to buy and spend hours in the supermarket. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH! I will copy the whole system 😁👍🏼 much love from Germany 🇩🇪 ❤️
great video, very well explained! I've watched a lot of meal planning videos and living in France I wonder....people in USA only cook dinners?? what about lunches?
Unfortunately, most people eat out on their 30-60 min lunch break from work and the kids eat school lunches. Some people take/send lunches to work/school, but most of us don't have time to go home, let alone cook lunch at home. Those of us who stay home/are home with little ones will probably not eat out, but some do
One of the more informative videos I've watched. Thanks for making it! :)
This video is going to be so helpful in planning for my family. Thanks.
So organized, thanks for the tips.
thank you Jessica this was very helpful x
Great video! A lot of good advice and tips! Thank you.
Very thorough and very well done with lots of good information; thank you much.
Love listening to your videos. Very planned out
this was great, I may try this. I just spent about an hour and. half writing down new recipes and ingredients I'll need and I could already tell I dislike the system lol so it's funny you uploaded this today. I'm mostly wanting to make sure we are eating healthier, so meal planning is very important to me to be successful in this year. this is a bit time consuming, but I definitely see how one night of prep makes the rest of the nights soooo much easier to tackle. ty for posting!
This is great for people who what to just have healthier home cooked meals or even for diets. I think at first it can seem like an overwhelming process, but after a few time of doing a meal plan it will become a lot easier. Now days I can't live with out it. I think you will find it very beneficial. Good luck!
Your meal planning was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you! 👍
Thanks for responding to our comments and uploading this video..how just how do you find time to do ALL you do ? videos, planning, etc - loved this video and your suggestions !

Omg thank you! Best video yet for meal planning!! I always want to meal plan but I get so frustrated! Thank u thank u 😀
I LOVE mealplanning, and am really looking forward to living on my own and being able to do it every week ^^ Great video, I picked up some tips I did not know about before, and that is the wisdom of experience!
That's great! The earlier you start the better! You will be a pro in no time! :-)
that was very helpful I have 2 kids and twins on the way so I'm trying to make my life easier. I want to start meal planning this was a great big help for me.To figure out how to do it. Thank You 😀
I like the plan and shopping list idea but, I spend the weekend cooking for the week. I do it as some times I don't feel like cooking and this way we don't get take out to often. Thanks for sharing
What pen are you using? Thanks for the video.
You explained this very well. My problem with meal planning is the follow-through, I never seem to want to make what I plan. 🥴 BTW Dollar Tree has those little dry-erase boards with a clip-on marker as well, but if one buys one, it might be a good idea to run a line of super glue around the outside since it likes to fall apart. Or maybe that's just me, and I'm too hard on my boards! Lol.
Thanks for giving us some ideas it always nice to have other way to planed our meal . I get out of ideas
This is perfect. When I saw the length I was thinking oh noooo lol. But I watched the whole thing and I enjoyed every minute! Thank you so much for this.
This is a great way to meal plan!! Thank you!
