I Heart.... Meal-Planning?

i heart meal planning, beginner's guide to get started

Love meal-planning? Seriously, is that even possible? I think so, because I do. Yes, really. Okay, so maybe it's slightly the planner in me. But it's also the incredible resource I have to do all of our meal-planning. As we near the holiday season that, let's face it, revolves largely around delicious meals, I thought it would be a good time to share about my favorite meal-planning resource in a series I'm calling "I Heart Meal-Planning."

If you're not vegan or vegetarian, don't tune out just yet. This meal-planning service is also useful for flexitarians, whole foods lovers, or even, gasp, meat-eaters. No haters around here--just pure meal-planning love.

In this 7-day series I'll share what I love about meal-planning with Veggie Meal-Maker, including:
