Things to Know About YTF Meal Plans
- The plans are interactive, which means you can use what I made in its complete form. Or you can add or remove recipes, adjust the servings on any given recipe, and create a custom shopping list with only the ingredients you actually need.
- Depending on the number of people in your family and appetites, recipes may work for more than one day. You can always adjust the serving sizes.
- Storage information is always included with each individual recipe, so be sure to look there.
- I tried to use similar ingredients throughout the week so you can make the best use of your groceries and avoid wasting food.
- Use the “Add a Collection” feature to Make Your Own Meal Plan.
- If you need an allergy substitution, look at the NOTES at the end of each individual recipe.
