Make Ahead Dinners to Simplify the Workweek

This cookbook helps busy families prepare dinner for the workweek without adding more stress at the end of the day.  It contains 12 weeks of 5-day meal plans for a total of 60 delicious meals.  Each weekly plan includes the menu, grocery list, recipes, prep session/make-ahead instructions, as well as the instructions to finish the meal when it’s time for dinner.

This easy meal prep guide is ideal for anyone who wants to make a home-cooked family dinner but doesn’t have enough time or energy after work to make a meal from scratch.  With this method, much of the work and hands on time is done in advance, taking the pressure off during the workweek and freeing up some time for other things.
