eat simple Grocery + Meal Guide
NOTES ON HOW TO USE THESE FORMS
I suggest you take a look through the meal suggestions and pick out what you know you want to eat. Make sure you grab what you need off the shopping lists at the store. If there's something you don't want, don't get it!
There are no quantities listed because I think most people can guess how much they need of fruits, vegetables, and meat to get through 4-7 days. After serving people for years, I've learned that everyone eats very different amounts of food at meals. I suggest grabbing what you know you can use up before it goes bad, cause you can always grab more.
I often don't include measurements in "recipes". Measuring takes extra time, and isn't really necessary for quick meals at home. If I recommend to make a spicy crema with yogurt, salsa, diced jalapeno, and cilantro, almost anything you make from those is gonna taste good, the ratios don't matter so much. Taste and adjust how YOU like it, that's part of the fun and creativity about making food!
I'm also giving you a list of common flavor profiles for popular cuisines, which should give you a helping hand when trying to throw things together. It has easy to find herbs, spices, etc., that you can pair together if you want something Mexican, or Italian, but you're stumped on what flavors to use.
