@quedee Meal plan! I do two weeks at a time. I go through the flyer, decide what I’m making and do my online grocery shopping as I make the list and check my pantry. The menu goes on the calendar so I know what to defrost, pre-prep, etc. and takes into account all of our activities. I usually plan a couple days in the two week period where it’s leftover or fend for yourself night.
I also love my instant pot. If everything goes off the rails I always know I can come home and have chili ready in 20 mins.
Also I pre-cook hamburger meat and separate it into containers and freeze. This is a huge time saver because it speeds up supper prep so fast.
