Why we created the 4 in 5 Meal Plan
Life can often throw curveballs, especially in households with young children, which is why we crafted this meal strategy. It aims to ease the dilemma of “What’s for dinner?” by offering simple yet flavorful dishes that come together in just 30 minutes!
Each recipe is designed to be versatile, allowing for quick swaps. For instance, using a pre-made salad kit instead of making coleslaw from scratch saves time without sacrificing flavor. This means less time in the kitchen and more quality moments with family!
Planning Made Easy: Local vs. Global Dining Trends
Incorporating local ingredients is not just trendy, but a sustainable and financially economical path toward better health on a global scale. This meal plan aligns well with current trends leaning towards simple recipes that utilize seasonal produce. With October bringing hearty vegetables like squash and root vegetables, utilizing these in your weekly meals helps avoid waste and supports local farmers.
