The importance of meal planning lies in its ability to save both money and time.

Trust me; implementing this will change your life. If you’re not the meal prep type, you can still plan as much as possible. 

Just take a moment in your week to look ahead and plan all the meals you’ll probably be making. Consider the portions and potential servings, then write down all the ingredients needed. 

This will not only help you buy only what is necessary but also ensure you’re consuming a wider variety of nutrients and not skipping any important meals.
