Thank you for popping in, Briana! Been thinking of you a lot lately and praying for you. It can kind of be a dreadful task if you have a household with a big variety of likes and dislikes. When my sons lived at home, I created a single 3x5 for each member of my family and had them write their favorite meals on their card and kept that in the front of my recipe box. This can make it easy to create a rotation plan to make sure that each month, everyone has a week with their favorite meal. But, I've gone a step further lately in tossing out recipes that require the purchase of special ingredients to buy. I like to have a pantry stocked with commonly used ingredients to make meals. Of course, it's also becoming more of challenge to purchase food on a tight budget.

Thank you for your prayers! I've been thinking of you too and so glad to see you back to the website. I hope all is well 🙏

That's an awesome idea!I could see taking in everyone's favs would be a good way to take the pressure to please them off. No one wants a ton of leftovers. My friend asks her daughter if she would take it for lunch to school the next day. If so, she knows she has a hit on her hands lol
