I stopped numbering my menu plans mid-way through the year because it was harder to keep up with numbers than names. From now on I think I will name my menus based on the theme!
This menu is recommended for when you have a free day or two before a busy week. The post where I share the recipes can be found here where I explained how I made this menu for a meal prep week. The accompanying video is found here.
However, the menu plan can easily be followed without doing the meal prep. Just toss the ingredients into the crockpot in the morning or instant pot in the afternoon.
I feel like this menu is perfect for fall and winter because it is soup heavy. I love to have a pot of soup warm in the kitchen and often I will just have it for breakfast and dinner. If you use your own stock it's even more nutritious!
