Tips for using your weekly menu plan

• Print several copies at once so you always have a fresh weekly menu plan ready when you need it.
• Fill it in at the same time each day to build a consistent habit — morning coffee or bedtime works well.
• Use colored pens or highlighters to visually distinguish categories or priority levels.
• At the end of each month, take a photo of the completed sheet before archiving it in a binder.

How often to update

Set aside a few minutes at the start or end of each week to update your weekly menu plan. Many people find Sunday evening or Monday morning works best. Print a fresh sheet for each new week to keep entries clean and organized.
