Everyone who's been following the MEAL PLANNER - over here for a second....

173 replies

I received my copies of a couple of meal planners last week. Tweaked them a bit and then went shopping. I have never, in my life, been or felt, so bloody organised.

It's been a joy the last three days - no wondering about what to do for dinner etc.

How's everyone else finding it?

Any other top tips for meal planning?

now, I've come here thinking you were offering a second meal planner

Doodle2U · 01/07/2008 18:37

Well you can have a copy of mine furball, with pleasure but I don't think it would pass muster with the food police!

I've added a once a month fry up and a once a month take away and a ready meal each week to cover me when the children have clubs etc to rush to!

great! furball (at) link2me.co.uk

ooooh would you be ever so kind and email me the food planner too please?
I tried to get the original one and for some reason it never came through to me (I didnt like to keep bugging the poor person to re send!)
I'd love to give it a go!!

Sorry, but what is the meal planner, have searched but I am obviously being a bit dense and can't find the original thread?

Doodle2U · 01/07/2008 19:18

Bratnav (I call my DH FatNav when he's map reading) - it's basically a spread sheet covering 4 weeks worth of meals. I can send you the ones I have which helped kick start me in to doing something.

Pretty please as well

Oooh yes please, that sounds really helpful. Is there any particular slant ie saving money/healthy eating?

Bratnav is what DP calls me as I refuse to let him use tomtom around town as I know all the short cuts!

sophiewd · 01/07/2008 19:23

That was quick, thank you very much

Doodle2U · 01/07/2008 19:25

Well I think it'll save money for us because I won't be popping down the shops for this and that during the week! You can use it to plan healtheir meals across a whole week as well.

One shop - everything you need for the week - no tea time angst

Oh, and you know when you say to your partner " What do you fancy for dinner?" and he says "I don't mind", so you give him two or three suggestions and he rejects all of them?.........well it stops all that crap as well!
