100 Days of Real Food Meal Planner

Excellent recipes. A great way to eat healthier. Easy to follow recipes. Nothing complicated.

I made a few resolutions for 2021, and one of them is to become more organized. Every so often, I manage to scrape together a meal plan for the week and it makes everything flow so much easier!But, I only manage to do this “every once in a while”...as in “every once in a blue moon.”I think this planner is a game changer. The author has laid everything out in a really simple, logical manner. She’s not judgy and I really feel like her honest intention is to help people organize simple, healthy meals for their families. I have her cookbooks and they have been my go-tos when I need a recipe that doesn’t have a ton of ingredients and that is actually really good! (Until now, I have thrown those recipes together on a whim...stressed out bc it wasn’t in my plan!)I’m in the middle of my first week and can say that I felt amazing after I made my plan, wrote it down, made my shopping list, ordered my groceries....I hung the weekly menu on my fridge and my family has been checking it out....They haven’t had to ask me, “What’s for dinner?” I haven’t had to figure it out at the last minute. We haven’t ordered out because we know we have one day on the menu where we plan to go out or order out...and that day is Saturday (though we can move it if necessary). During covid, we have been ordering out too much. I think having the “one” restaurant day on the weekly plan is giving my family something to look forward to....I think they’re also looking forward to trying the new recipes on the menu rotation.Yes...It sounds so easy to just make a plan and make it happen. And, if you’re great at that, more power to you. But, with our hectic school and ever- changing work schedules and sports schedules, I haven’t been able to master the meal planning. I just really like the way this book has been laid out and look forward to filling my 52 weeks of meal plans!So far, I’m a HUGE fan!

I enjoy the organizer. I was writing my menu on a piece of notebook paper that would get lost throughout the week so it’s nice having the menu in a guaranteed spot. I also like having my shopping list right next to the menu-very convenient. My daughters LOVE the school checklist and are more adventurous with their food choices because of it. I thinks it’s easier for them to have the choices where they can see them rather than trying to come up with ideas on their own.I did take one star off for the laminated menu. It was a great idea but it is really hard to erase.Also, for anyone not familiar with 100 Days of Real Food, I find that her recipes are a hit or miss. So, as with her cookbooks, I found some of the recipes were good and some I won’t be making a second time. I didn’t take off any stars for that since it is more of my personal taste.

I love this cook book for college students. I love how simple and easy it is to use. This book has helped my college student eat healthy and save money 💰

was just ok... felt like I was excited to use it but was just another place to write down grocery lists!

Loving this meal planner so far! We are on week 1 and it has definitely helped get us organized in the kitchen already. Between gymnastics, taekwondo, night school and 2 parents working, we need all the help we can get! We've decided to get the kids involved more consistantly in the kitchen, so they will each be helping with dinner once/week. I think having everything written out ahead of time will really help with that. The only thing i would change is possibly more space between each line for grocery items (i have bubbly handwriting). Also there is glue on the reusable weekly meal template (from manufacturing) so I am unable to use it. We havent tried any of the included recipes yet but we intend to bc they sound delicious! All together Im happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it.

I absolutely love this planner!! It pulls everything together. It makes the job of figuring out what's for dinner so much easier! Tear out shopping list, a place to plan out your menu and then a dry erase menu "board" to post on fridge so your family knows what is for dinner each day. There is also a dry erase list of lunch and snack ideas!If you need your menu planning streamlined, this is the tool for you!!It has settled the dreaded "What's for dinner?" question!It also makes grocery shopping a breeze, with the shopping list.I post the menu and the lunch/ snack card on the fridge right beside my "What are we out of" white board.This little planner has helped make my worst chore (grocery shopping) one of my favorites!
