Being organized isn’t just about organizing physical items, a truly organized life encompasses all parts of day to day living. Routines that eliminate stress and chaos help us mentally by simplifying daily tasks. One way I’ve simplified my mental “to do” list is with meal planning. Meal planning has numerous benefits. I’ve elaborated on the meal planning process with details of how this meal plan works in 2 week increments in this post.
Today I’m sharing Week 1 & 2 of the system that works for my family. Please read the post on Meal Planning to see the process that I use and how it works.

Are you wondering why there are 11 meals listed when there are 14 days in 2 weeks? All the answers can be found in this detailed post on how I practice meal planning. Our favorite dinner recipes from the meal planning menu will be shared on the blog. Quinoa Stuffed Peppers is easy and a favorite recipe of mine because everyone likes it and we always have leftovers for lunch the next day. You can check it out here. If your looking for an easy dessert the fruit pizza is a favorite.
