- Switching up my meal planning to 1x a month has been a huge game changer. Do you meal plan? If so, how do you do it?
While my method isn't always foolproof, it helps keep me organized as well as keeping a variety of different cuisines on the table.

Julie- Thanks for this video. You inspire me. You and Landon are very humble and not braggy at all.
I am doing a pantry freezer clean out. I cook and use everything. Only new foods I buy are perishables. Lots of random meals lately but feels good to not waste food
I use an app on my phone called Paprika that saves recipes from websites if you tell it the URL to use. Then when you want to plan a shopping trip you can just tap the recipe to add the ingredients to your grocery list (you can delete anything you have already in your pantry before adding). I love your idea of having themes for different days - it creates so much lovely variety across the week. The meals sound delicious!
Goodmorning Deru Crew family Happy Tuesday. Always thank you for sharing tips and incredible idea's. Hope you have a wonderful day. ❤❤
Thank you for sharing these types of videos! As a mom of 1 I still truly enjoy watching and learning from you!
As a student, this video is super helpful so thank you! I'm currently studying to be a librarian and I agree your sweater is super cute!
I'm pretty much the same meal planner as you. Except I shop once a week and base most of my meals around what's on sale at the grocery store. I also do grocery pickup so there aren't any temptations to buy extras and I know exactly how much I'm spending. Great video!
That is a great idea. I will try that next time!
Julie ,thank you so much for your video on meal planning. This was so useful and fun to see the variety of meals you have planned. We just love your videos. You are the most wonderful, kind and inspirational person. You and Landon are such a cute couple and your children are darling. I love that the two of you are not superficial and that you don’t go over your heads in debt just to prove to society that you have it all .❤️
Glad it was helpful!
I’m just like you every Thursday night when we sit at the dinner table, I ask my husband and my kids. What do they want for dinner next week? They give me their ideas and that way when I make my grocery list to go shopping on Friday mornings, I know what meal I’m making and what I need to buy for that meal or to see if I have any part of that meal Already in the house. It makes it so much easier to shop and I feel like you’re not wasting as much food throughout the week because you’re only buying what you need for those meals plus your snacks and a couple extra treats that aren’t on your shopping list.Also on Thursday nights, I will go through the fridge pull out anything that’s old anything expired and prep and get the fridge ready for the new stuff on Fridays.
Love this! I will also ask my kids what they want but they always say spaghetti haha
@ when I asked my boys, they always tell me steak or homemade sushi every week and I’m always like besides steak and sushi. What would you like? Then their next best choice is always chicken cutlets.
@@JulieDeruYou are too amazing and kind
Love you guys
I want to eat at your house-- those meals sound delicious. For simplicities sake, I have fallen into a rut of making the same 7-10 dinner meals on repeat with only the occasional variance. My meals aren't gross, but they are extremely repetitive.
I enjoy meal planning even though it's just me and also when I have items in my pantry or freezer I make a list of what I have available and what meals I could do.
I wish I would have done this as a single college student. It would have helped me so much.
What kind of Raman noodles do you use?
I buy a package from Costco. I can’t remember what they are called but it’s a red package that has 6 sections of noodles. I think they are organic.
I’m really interested in the very different food you eat to us in Scotland
I think it’s common in America to eat a variety of cuisines. What type of food do you eat in Scotland?
This is great! I am the type that asks what's for dinner/supper as I'm eating breakfast 😂
Julie, I love this idea to simplify meal planning. A quick question, where do you print those meal planning sheets from? Thank you, Heidi ( Bailey)
I rewatched the video and saw you get it from pinterest
I needed this today, thanks girl! ❤
This is super helpful, thank you 😊
You are welcome! Glad I could help!
I would love to see you cook a meal from what you have in the freezer/fridge coz most of us don’t meal plan
Usually the food that I have in my fridge and freezer are a result of my planning. Not a whole lot extra to pull from. I can get creative but I typically stick with my grocery list to make specific meals. Hope that made sense.
What is the website you were showing with the salads?

Two peas and their pod :)
@@JulieDeru thank you!
Julie, I'm wondering how much time you spend in the kitchen per day... including, prepping, feeding your sour dough, cooking and cleaning. I do everything that I can to spend as little time as possible in the kitchen.
Example, I'll cook an entire bag of spinach, bake lots of potatoes and cook loads of meat and freeze in single portions. If you have a better plan, wld love it❤🙏✅️❤️
I do spend quite a bit of time in the kitchen, but it is worth it to me. I should be a lot better about batch cooking. Even though I can think far ahead to meal plan, I don’t think far ahead to prep food for other nights.
Nice to see you again ❤❤
you cook the best food julie. your the best. please tell your kids and your husband i said hi
What’s your sourdough cookbook?
The food nanny.
Do your kids eat all of that ( none are picky eaters)?
It’s a hit and miss. Sometimes they aren’t a big fan but for the most part they are pretty good at eating. They will at least eat something on their plate.
Thank you for sharing! ~~~💙~💜~💜~💙~💙~💜~💜~~~

I do 😂🤦🏻♀️
