- In this video, I explain how I make my grocery list one time and never make it again! We'll use Google calendar to organize your menu plan and Google Docs to help keep it at your fingertips. It's a set it and forget it automatic menu plan that's 100% customizable for your family! And it's 100% free! You don't have to buy a fancy meal plan or book or subscription service to make meal planning easier.
Let's also plan the menu for the whole month! If you've ever stood in the kitchen at dinner time cursing Past You for not thinking ahead to make feeding Future You easier, then this video is for you! In my house, I'm the person in charge of making sure everyone gets fed. If that's you too, then I hope this video is helpful.

Kristan thank you so much for this video. I just found your channel a couple of months ago but i love how you tackle real life questions and talk us through things that actually come up for real people and planners everyday! Especially your most recent videos. Your are really coming into your own! Love it!
Corrie I'm crying 🥺🥺 this is such a special comment. Thank you so much for taking the time to tell me this. You have no idea how much this means to me. 🥰🥰
Would love a more detailed video of how you set all of this up 😊
Will do! It's on my list and I'll try to get it posted soon. Thanks so much for watching!
I did this several years ago (but stopped using it)! I created a new GCal called Meals. If it was an online recipe, I added the link to the recipe and otherwise in notes I would say what page out of what cookbook it was in, or copied and pasted the recipe in the recurring calendar note! Now I use Paprika recipe app, which is fantastic!
That's amazing! I add the links to the recipe or cookbook info to my meal events too. I've heard of Paprika, glad to hear you like it! Thank you for watching 🥰
Great idea for using your Google calendar and documents to plan out your meals for the month. If I were one to plan out for the whole month, I would definitely think of using this system. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Brenda! It's been a game changer. Thanks for watching!
I've always felt overwhelmed by menu planning. But you really broke it down to make it easier. I'm inspired to give this a try!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much for watching!
Possibly one of the best videos ever. Thank you for sharing!!!
Wow, thank you!
I love how you made it more simple to work for your family, it inspired me to do the same.
That's awesome! I hope you find something that works for you! Thanks for watching, Nikki!
What a great idea! I do think know if full month planning works for our family due to work and sports schedules, but I love the idea of linking to g-docs and doing this weekly and for my monthly Costco runs. And linking to the recipe url on the event. Brilliant!
Totally! Having what you need at just a tap away really simplifies things!
I love this, thank you for sharing with us!
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!
Yes, i would love to see how you create a grocery list.
Got it! I will add it to my list of videos to make soon. Thanks for watching!
I’m a little lost, do you do a paper menu and then also put it all on google calendar? Why not use one or the other?
My son doesn't use my google calendar and he likes to know what is for dinner. The paper calendar goes on the fridge for him (which also doubles as a way to practice basic life skills of consulting a calendar to find information). The google calendar helps me not to have to constantly think of new things since I can set meals to automatically repeat. Also I like stationery and it's fun to just use markers and stuff to be a little creative sometimes.
I. Have never done a menu for a month. Lol. A week yea. But not longer. Bc I suck at it. Hahah but I think I could do this simplified way. Hmm.
It felt daunting at first but now iI basically glance at it each week to compare ot to our actual schedule that week and it seems to be working out! I'll update again if things change. Thank you for watching!
You need to start putting violence disclaimers in your videos because you keep blowing our minds 🤯
Haha thanks Ivette!! 🤩
