The freezer usually holds several boxes of soup as well as the main part of the meal. Of course, if we liked it enough to eat again the next day we can swap lunch for dinner or the other way round. Makes life hugely easier.

However, I’ll glance through the grocery ads prior to actually deciding on the dinner menu. Many times, the meats on sale will help me formulate my menu. I’ve found that meal-planning first often leads to significant menu changes, because of what’s on sale — for example, if I’m thinking about stuffed pork chops for a dinner, but another cut is on special for significantly less, I’ll switch things up. Easier to write the menu once, rather than erase or write over it. Just my thoughts.
