BHG Meal Planning 2024

All you need is a good meal planning strategy to make your life easier. With just a little extra prep time spent on the weekends, you can jump-start meals for the whole week. Better Homes & Gardens Meal Planning is packed with more than 60 recipes that you can plan ahead, then finish off when a quick breakfast, lunch, or dinner is a must. For example, when you’re making a casserole, double up-whip up one for dinner, stash the other in the freezer. Or put together a sheet-pan dinner that yields enough leftovers to transform into a completely different dinner tomorrow. Jump-start slow-cooker dinners for the week by assembling the ingredients in a bag, then refrigerating until you’re ready to pop it in the slow cooker. Or fix a big batch of protein (chicken, pork, ground beef, or a vegetarian blend), then remake the extras in two different ways during the coming week. This magazine is all about prepping smart so you can eat at home with less weeknight fuss and bother. Are you ready to simplify? Let’s go!
