To make a purchase adjusted to the actual consumption, it is best to plan a weekly menu in advance . Below you will find all the templates, but first, let's see some tips to make your menu.
Keys to fill out your weekly menu template
- A bit of everything. A healthy weekly menu should consist of plenty of fruits and vegetables, cereals, rice, pasta, bread or potatoes, dairy, eggs, legumes, fish and lean meats. That should be the basis of your shopping list, buying only occasionally other products.
- Don't forget breakfast. If you want to start the day with the right nutritional intake and save a good amount per month, think of homemade breakfasts that include a portion of dairy (milk, yogurt or cheese), cereals (whole wheat bread or oatmeal …) and fruit (whole).
- Forget about the precooked ones. They are much more comfortable and tempting but also more expensive and with a greater contribution of salt, saturated fat and sugar. By eliminating them from your diet you can save up to 30%, without counting the benefits for your health.
- Seek consensus. Create a monthly or weekly menu - to which you can gradually incorporate variations - in which all the members of the family agree and commit to follow. If not, you will end up improvising unbalanced dishes at the last minute.
