The real value of a meal planner is the shopping list that comes out of it. When dinner is decided before you reach the store, you buy less and waste less. These workbooks keep menus and groceries together for the whole year.

What to look for

  • Grocery pages. Lists that sit beside the menu are much quicker to use.
  • Extras. Some include recipe or pantry pages, which help if you cook from what you have.
  • Goals. If you're also watching your fitness, a combined planner saves keeping two books.
