Hey friends! Welcome to Girls Night!

I’m so excited about today’s episode. Today we’re talking about how to make a meal plan that will actually make your life easier.

Alternate titles for today’s episode are:

A meal planning guide for people who are terrible at meal planning
Stephanie finally gets unstuck in an area of life that has been frustrating her every single day for years.

So, I know that some of the women in our community are excellent cooks. They feel comfortable in the kitchen, and their favorite question to answer is, “What’s for dinner?” I wish that was the case for me, but it’s totally not.

I’m the takeout queen. And although I’ve tried meal planning more times than I can count, I’ve never been able to do it in a way that makes my life easier.

In fact, it always seems to make my life harder. I could break out in hives just thinking about it!

When I think about meal planning, I picture a complicated app full of recipes I don’t actually want to make. I picture the app spitting out a grocery list that’s the length of a CVS receipt, and I picture me spending too much time and too much money on meals I’m not actually excited about eating in the first place.

This plan didn’t make my life easier, it’s made it 10X harder.

And so I always end up tossing out my meal plan (and the whole weekend I spent making it!) and just end up winging it — somehow surprised and frustrated every single day when at 5pm we have to (AGAIN!) answer the question, “What do we want to do for dinner?”

So when I got the opportunity to have Kendra Adachi back on the show to tell us about her new book, The Lazy Genius Kitchen, I was excited, but also thought that whatever tips she had probably wouldn’t help me.

I’m so happy I was wrong. This conversation was honestly life-changing for me. I can’t wait for you to hear it.
