3.Pick Versatile Ingredients
Look for foods that work in a few different dishes. For example, you might use quinoa to make a side dish, add to a salad, or as part of a grain bowl for lunch. A roast chicken can be an entrée, added to a soup, or served in tacos throughout the week. And if there’s any left over, you can freeze it.
4.Shop Once
Once you have your list, pick a shopping day that fits your schedule. Maybe you like going to the neighborhood farmers market on Saturdays or hitting up the grocery store on a weeknight when it’s not busy. Be sure to buy just what you need. And don’t let the sight of a week’s worth of groceries overwhelm you when you get home. Remember, you don’t have to shop and cook on the same day.
