How to Create a Meal Plan That Meets Your Needs
The first step to meal planning is to figure out what your needs are. Consider your dietary restrictions, your schedule, and your budget. Once you know what your needs are, you can start to create a meal plan.
Here are some tips for creating a meal plan:
- Start small: Don't try to overhaul your entire diet overnight. Start by making small changes, such as adding a serving of fruit or vegetables to each meal.
- Be realistic: Don't create a meal plan that you're not going to be able to stick to. Choose recipes that are easy to make and that you enjoy eating.
