If you’ve never meal planned before, it might seem intimidating, but it doesn’t have to be. First of all, you don’t need to reinvent the wheel! Use recipes you love and know well for your first month, then branch out from there. But if even that seems like too much, you can also use one of our Southern Savers meal plans. Each month I share what we’re eating all month. You can copy our plan or just use it as inspiration. Here’s our free January 2022 monthly meal plan.
Southern Savers FREE January 2022 Monthly Meal Plan
For the first month of this new year, I’m keeping things simple. We also have a few nights where I don’t have to cook due to church events, which is always nice. Your calendar may look different, so feel free to do something easy on those nights or use that as a frugal eating out opportunity!
