What is a meal plan, how is it created and is it worth the time and effort? We wanted to know what families thought so we asked more than 100 of them about meal plans at their house. Here are a few interesting facts we found:

19% always make a meal plan
55% sometimes create a meal plan
22% only dream of creating a meal plan
The others were not quite sure what a meal plan was.

Those who did create a meal plan were asked
how often?

81% plan for a week of meals
17% plan for a month of meals
2 % plan each day

74% of the families surveyed create a meal plan at least some of the time. Here’s why:

  • Saves time

  • Saves money

  • Relieves stress

  • Healthier

So if you are looking for some ways to have a little more time in your day, hang on to a few more dollars, reduce some stress in your life and/or improve health for you and your family, a meal plan may be a great place to start. Later this week we will be sharing some super meal planning tips from the families surveyed.
