Keto Meal Plan Week 12
We won’t be eating at home as much this week due to the 4th of July holiday, and a possible out of town trip to see my family next weekend. I did include meals that cover the weekend just in case we end up staying home. I have had so many of you tell me how much you appreciate these meal plans. I really try to keep them as simple as possible. If you are busy like me, I just don’t have time to invest in extravagant meals each night. Making extra at dinner to cover lunch the next day also saves me tons of time. If we happen to not have enough the next day for lunch, then I’ll eat lunch meat and cheese with some pecans on the side to make it easy. As a mom of 4, I just don’t care what I eat for lunch most days. My only requirements are easy, as mess free as possible, and keto friendly, of course.
As I have said before, I take a somewhat lazy approach to meal planning. I don’t prep a lot of food in advance simply because I don’t have the time. Instead, I have found that making extra at meals to cover lunch the next day is the most helpful step I can take. I also like to buy ground beef in bulk when I can and brown it in advance and freeze it in ziplock bags. It makes cooking dinner later so much faster. If you are new to meal planning, these 5 easy steps meal prep ideas will be helpful to get started. Meal planning can be beneficial to stay on track and to reduce your grocery bill. As always, this is a very loose plan. If I get a better offer for dinner out, I won’t hesitate to alter our meal plan for
