Tip of the Day by Melissa Hartwig:

Having a meal plan for the next three days or so can help you stay on track. The brain loves a plan, so you’ll be less stressed. Plus, you’ll save money by only buying the fresh food you need. When I’m roasting veggies, I make sure my oven is full with two trays, and use them throughout the week. I also keep a list of three “emergency meals” I can make quickly with foods I always have on hand, like scrambled eggs, steamed spinach, and avocado, for nights when I’m too tired to think about what’s for dinner. You can find some of my favorite Whole 30 meal ideas on the @whole30recipes Instagram feed.
