Easy Asian Chicken Lettuce Wrap

Need to simplify your dinner life? Here’s how.

Start to ease your “what’s for dinner” headache by, planning ahead. I know, not everyone is born to be a meal planner and neither am I, but I’ve learned to become one. Here’s some of what I’ve learned through the years while finding what works for me.

  • Plan a week ahead.
  • Make it simple for the weekdays and save the challenging, time-consuming recipes for the weekends.
  • Plan meals that take minimal ingredients and are easy to keep staple ingredients in your pantry or that will keep fresh in your fridge for several days.
  • Give yourself some grace. If your meal planning doesn’t go according to plan, that’s okay. I give myself a day or two of being flexible and that makes it easier for me to stick to the rest of the schedule.
  • Buy only what you need. I prefer to plan my meals only a week in advance, but I also take into account holidays, my personal schedule, world pandemics, etc. Shop the best possible way that works for you.
  • And finally, find a few family favorite recipes that you can mingle in with other new recipes to try out. Again, keep it simple.
