If you are a parent and you need to buy, prepare and serve food for yourself and your family every day you’ll understand the importance of meal planning.

Meal Planning can be laborious, tedious and repetitive but when you use technology to help, you’ll find that its rather easy and you’ll eat healthier. If you’re keen for your children to learn how to cook and look after themselves you’ll find our case studies invaluable.

For this case study we’re exploring a variety of different meals on a rotation basis so you can become an expert in a few meals, have great variety and less stress. We’re also using popular “packets” like Marion’s Thai meals because they make the flavour part simple.

First Steps

The major steps are:

• Choosing which meals you love and want to eat (like Thair Green Chicken Curry)
• Then you can choose the meat (if different varieties go with what you want to make)
• Discover which vegetables work well in that dish
• Choose 5 meals for the week
• Learn what quantities you need for your family
• Compile a shopping list based on your dishes
• Buy the food
• Cook big batches so you have 2 days worth of food
• Get your kids involved (or friends if you are single)
