Tips for getting the most from your meal planner

Check the fridge first

Plan meals around what you already have before you write the grocery list.

Cook once, eat twice

Plan a leftovers night or batch-cook a base like rice or chili for two meals.

Keep a rotation

Save 10 to 15 family favorites on recipe cards and rotate them.

Shop by section

Group your list by produce, dairy, pantry and frozen to get round the store faster.

Frequently asked questions

How do I start meal planning?

Pick a planning day, check what's in the fridge and pantry, plan five dinners, then write a grocery list from the plan. The template walks you through each step.

Does it include recipes?

It includes blank recipe cards to save your own family favorites. It's a planner, not a cookbook.

How do I get my files?

Right after checkout you'll see a download link on the order confirmation page, and we email it to you too. Nothing is shipped.

What paper size are the files?

Every PDF comes in both US Letter and A4, so it prints correctly anywhere.

Can I use it on my iPad or tablet?

Yes. Import the PDF into GoodNotes, Notability or any PDF annotation app and write with your stylus.

What if a file doesn't work?

Email help@bitshelf.net with your order number. If a file won't open, is missing or is wrong, we'll replace it or refund you within 14 days of purchase.
