Never been so fast to purchase something! I love your videos, been watching for a few years now, I have that exact meal planning book, LOVE IT. Can't wait to watch the courses and try to save me some mulah$$$ and some time and enegry as a mom of a 4 year old and 2 month old.
Hello Jen, I hope you are having a relaxing start to your weekend. This meal planning course is genius! I work with young adults, specifically international college and university students, who have not been taught the very valuable skills of grocery shopping, meal planning and cooking. I can't tell you how often they complain about the expense of having to buy takeout meals because they wouldn't know where to start planning meals and using a few recipes to keep them on a food budget. This course isn't only helpful to young adults , but to everyone who would like to prepare better than takeout meals and do so in spite of inflated grocery prices. Good luck ! Margaret
Hey Jen, I‘m a 19 year old girl from Munich, Germany and just bought your course. I hope it helps me even more to meal prep and prepare myself to plan out the right meals for my apprenticeship👍☺️
Totally agreed. It is really tuff to eat healthy, exercising and sleeping enough while travelling. I’m in the airline industry and I totally understand you.
We do "theme nights" for some days. It does help with planning, but we started it because my son with autism needed the routine. We have 4 kids and both work full-time, though I do work from home, which helps. Mondays - Doesn't have a theme, but I usually make something in the crockpot or something really easy because they're busy days for me. I haven't thought of a clever name for it yet. Lol. Tomorrow, I'm making a roast with vegetables kit that was on sale at Walmart with some Walmart bakery croissants. Tuesdays - "Taco Tuesday" (tacos, taco soup, quesadillas, nachos, taco salad, or something similar). For this coming Tuesday, I've planned taco soup with Fritos. I made chicken quesadillas last week with chips and salsa on the side. Wednesdays - It doesn't have a set theme yet. We consider it a random night because it could be anything, but I do make breakfast this night a lot when I can't otherwise figure it out. I might steal your "waffle Wednesday" theme. Lol. Thursdays - "spaghetti Thursday" (some kind of pasta, like spaghetti, ravioli, Alfredo, hamburger helper, even chicken noodle soup, etc.) This Thursday, I'm making a frozen lasagna and garlic bread because it's our anniversary and I won't want to really cook. We're going away the following weekend and can go out then. Friday - "fast food Friday" (some kind of takeout, it's my day off from cooking dinner). Saturday - "pizza Saturday". No alliteration there. Lol. Sunday - sort of themed. I usually do a traditional-ish Sunday dinner type thing (a ham, roast, rotisserie chicken, chicken and dumplings, or something similar) or "sandwich Sunday" or "soup Sunday". Today, I'm making grilled ham and cheese on brioche bread.
Video brought to you by me!! Lol I love to batch cook while switching the meat from week to week. Maybe make a beef casserole, taco meat and spaghetti one week. Next week, chicken fajitas, a chicken and veggie soup, and crock pot meal.
Thank you for offering this course! I am still watching you and love learning from you and so excited to have a dedicated course as I need the kick to get started again with a structured meal planning course. Love you girl!
Hey ! Loved the video Could you give some advice for teenagers who still live with parents ? , like how to navigate the situation and successfully have a fitness journey ❤
Me trying to meal plan knowing what my kids like & also knowing what they're tired of... I even try having them help more or asking what meal they'd like me to make.
The Paprika app was the ultimate game changer for planning meals and generating a grocery list. It has also replaced my recipe box and most books. 100% customizable, user friendly, and I also use it when cooking.
Meal planning is my nemesis, i work through most dinner hours so i have to leave instructions for the husband and prep ( so he doesnt get overwhelmed lol) or use the crockpot or make a freezer meal.
@@clschaan me too. It's difficult leaving instructions for the 13 year old. I was cooking full meals at his age but he's not interested in cooking really.
I signed up right away!! How cool!! Congratulations!!! I'm so excited!!! I like to do a monthly meal plan, by the way. Doing weekly has made it way too easy to deviate than monthly. I don't adhere to it 100% (I move meals around or we eat out instead sometimes), but it's been easier to stick to that than a weekly one.
Can't find your course anymore I would still like to have it can you post the link please? The link you have pinned does not have a page to register as a new student at least I could not find the page, do you happen to have a customer service line I can call or email?
Hi Jen, my main problem with meal planning is that when the day comes I don't feel like eating that anymore. Do you have any ideas? I usually have everything ready, I start very good Monday and Tuesday and then everything falls apart 🙃
I'm the same way. So I plan 5 meals per week (1 night out and 1 leftover night). I make sure I have all the ingredients for them and I decide the night before which meal I want
We are planners but w my schedule there's some night I'm not home til 630 or 930. So my husband cooks and feed the family then I just warm up or take for lumch. These are great ideas and awesome you started this class. Hugs friend Elissa modesto cali @elissa_tc

Those are all great points! So many don’t learn those skills at home.
I am very new to the idea of meal planning. I hadn't realised it was so complicated you needed to do a course on it! A rethink may be in order.

Glad it was helpful!
Friday Freezer frenzy = use up all the random bits like fries etc lol ends up being like appetizer plates
I like that!
Thank you for offering this course! I am still watching you and love learning from you and so excited to have a dedicated course as I need the kick to get started again with a structured meal planning course. Love you girl!
I have been doing meal planning for many years now. I also use a dedicated meal planner. I have just begun to look for next years planner.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 to you and your meal planning course ! Sponsoring your own video is boss level
Great, great ideas! Thank you!
Murphy and Milo...Hey Mom's filming...time to show our sweet faces so we get a treat 😂😂. CONGRATULATIONS Jen !!!
Excited for this course i know you’ve been wanting to create this for a very long time. I struggle sooooooo much with eating out.
Hey ! Loved the video
Could you give some advice for teenagers who still live with parents ? , like how to navigate the situation and successfully have a fitness journey ❤
Meal planning is life changing. Your meal planning videos encourage me to do so!

These are great tips! I love your outfit and jewelry as well. You look very put together. 😄

I wish I had watched this sooner! signed up as soon as I knew it was out there...lol So excited!

@@NaturallyGourgeous Same i can't find it
I need tips on feeding toddlers! How do you get your kids to eat the same food as you?
I used to give my son like one Brussel sprout. Little by little and then let them see you snacking on things and they will imitate you!
I recommend She’s In Her Apron’s planner! Every month she has a spread to take your inventory and write meal ideas based on what you already have
Found you from Frugal Fit Mom! So glad I did!
Okay Murphy standing there watching you from behind cracked me up😂😂 congrats on launching your course!!
Great video Jen. Best part for me is seeing Murphy! Such a sweet boy. Milo is handsome as well.
dogs are always welcome!
Just joined. I need this!!!
It's my first time watching your video and your lovebug at the back just standing still watching you cracked me up! Hahahaha
Awwww Murphy ❤
I absolutely love the way Murphy stands there looking at the camera 😂🥰 I want to kiss his gorgeous face!! X
I missed the name of the planning book you recommend. Tell me again please
This sounds great! Is it a one tme charge or monthly?
Just one time!
Did you already announce the meal planner winners who signed up for the course? Thanks!
Congratulations Jen. I might just have to take your class.❤
Sweet! Looking forward to the course. I do meal plan but there's room for improvement. 😆
What paper (non meal) planner do you use?
How long do we get access to the class once we sign up?
I’m so excited! I was hoping you would be launching your own meal planner! A course is just as great 💯
Oh gosh my own planner would be a dream! I need to figure that out hahaha
💃 Woot for that sponsor! 😍 😉

@@lilybellemommy this sounds like a great idea hahah why didn't I think about this before hahaha
Excited to join the course. Meal prep is a life changer and you always provide great ideas and recipes!
When I clicked the video I was wondering what happened to the course you were planning...well here it is. Haha
I wish I could afford the class.
Murphy deserves a treat for leading baby away...lol
Thank You 💕MAY GOD BLESS YOU & EVERYONE IN JESUS NAME AMEN 💕🙏
❤
I tried to get the course twice. It freezes and doesn’t look like it’s processing. I’ll try again later just in case the charge goes through lol
You can email me at info(at)jen-chapin(dot)com if you keep having issues and I will try to help! :)
It went through when I used my card instead of PayPal. Thank you!
@@sherrylg2006 I would have to use PayPal so I hope I don't run into issues 😊
I try to meal plan but my kids are very picky. They will only eat certain things.
Half a video watched and haven’t found anything valuable yet.
Murphy was behaving, don't draw him into the noise...lol
I can’t ever do a video without the tap tap tap of doggie feet 🐾 😂❤
@@Jen-Chapin good company can not be ignored. even if a little distracting.
@@Jen-Chapin we don't mind your kids,dogs or husband in your videos at all! So fun 💙
👍💞
With all due respect, in today's modern age people expect value from a video within the first 5 seconds. I'm 3 minutes in and haven't learned much.
