What would really help ok a shopping list plus a schedule if when to prep in bulk—like Sunday, chop up all the _____ you will be using Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Or something like that. THe cooking takes time but so does the planning and shopping and I often find these peeps to be my rate limiting steps. Thanks for the great recipes though!
Melissa, Thank you so much for the feedback, we’ll keep this in mind going forward. :0
