It’s Sunday. A day of rest for most of us, or at least we try, right?
By the time Sunday afternoon rolls around, it’s time for me to carve out one hour to devote to prepping for the week of meals ahead. If I do, it does wonders for smoother and more efficient dinners.
There are weeks where I admit to flying by the seat of my pants, barely giving a thought to meal plans and what not. But the truth is, when I have some meals set in place, with the intent of repurposing leftovers into something just as appetizing, the week is so much more enjoyable!
Do you like to prep for the week, too?
I recently shared some of my tried and true tips for making meal planning a cinch on SheKnows.com. Come join me and check it out!
Once you get the meal planning out of the way, you can get back to your well deserved R&R. Which is right where I’m headed, right now. Have a restful Sunday, everyone!

I try to prep on Sundays, but it doesn’t always work out how I plan. Heading over to check out your tips! Thanks, Liren!
I really want to get better about meal planning. It’s not my strength right now!
I totally agree with you- when I meal plan, I feel extra efficient throughout the rest of the week. With only two mouths to feed, it also helps to ensure that I’m using ingredients well and not buying too much of one thing, only to use a little in one dish!
I don’t tend to meal prep but I always like making a big batch of dinner so that I can have leftovers the next day! Also, the same for pasta sauce and soups!
I wiiiish I could just prep for the week, but I think it’s the idea of spending a TON of hours one day makes me nervous haha. Like if I spend all day prepping Sunday, then I have to catch up on the work I could’ve done in other things. But ultimately I know it saves more time in the end!
That’s awesome that you do prep in advance though!
