Hey friends! If you follow us over on Instagram (@themealplanningmethod) you'll commonly see Kroger pop-up in our posts, stories, and meal plans. Being a nutrition nerd, I could truly shop at ANY grocery store, but for us Kroger is our typical one-stop-shop place to get all our ingredient needs week-to-week. And it doesn't hurt that's it's so close to home! Kroger, of course, has their own line of products, including Private Selection, so I thought I'd share our very favorite buys that you can find in our fridge and pantry on any given day. Check 'em all our top picks from Kroger below!  OUR 6 FAVORITE PRODUCTS FROM KROGER

DISCLOSURE: Thank you to Oscar Mayer for allowing me to collaborate with them on this post. All opinions are my own. Hi friends! When you hear "Oscar Mayer," what do you think of? Hot dogs? Wieners? Do you want to sing "I wish I were an Oscar Mayer wienerrrrrr... that is what I truly wish to beeeee"? 🎶🌭 Well, it might surprise you to know that Oscar Mayer makes everything from franks (yes!) and kielbasa to bacon and deli meats too. So, the options are truly endless when it comes to meal planning with Oscar Mayer products. Keep scrolling to see just how we did this and WHY.  WHY CHOOSE OSCAR MAYER?Did you know that 2017, Oscar Mayer actually took out artificial preservatives, added nitrates and nitrites and by-products for a better dog across their whole product line?! You can see the claims right on their packaging!  WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL WITH NITRATES & NITRITES?Both nitrates and nitrites are popular preservatives for meat and often used to cure meats to prevent the bacteria that causes botulism to grow. This curing can lead to the formation of potentially cancer-causing (carcinogenic) chemicals. Yikes. Luckily, Oscar Mayer offers many high quality products that we can feel good about enjoying without also giving up the foods we love most! Just check out how we meal planned with a variety of these artificial preservative-free and no-added nitrate/nitrite Oscar Mayer goodies everyday for a whole week!  Here are our meal plan details...
Could you meal plan with Oscar Mayer everyday?! We sure had fun taking on the challenge! Be sure to look out for Oscar Mayer products in a store near you. And head on over to our IG (@themealplanningmethod) for some fun behind the scenes shots of us visiting the infamous Wienermobile in Nashville, TN! Happy meal planning friends! lindsey Pst!

Hey friends! Since launching The Meal Planning Method a few years ago, we've certainly had our fair share of grocery lists. And as you get really consistent with the habit of meal planning each week, you start to notice the same foods popping up on your grocery list week after week - such as bread, milk, and bananas. If you've gotten to this point, and are becoming a regular meal planner, you might find a "MASTER GROCERY LIST" helpful each week. A Master Grocery List is designed to encompass foods you frequently buy at the grocery store, allowing for you to meal plan even quicker and lessen the chance of you forgetting common fridge/pantry staples each week. Sounds pretty sweet, right?  Now the exact foods that YOU should include in YOUR Master Grocery List are 100% based off of what YOU and YOUR household frequently needs. For example, my household eats oats daily, whereas yours may never touch them but every once in a while. There is no right or wrong type of "Master Grocery List". Your Master Grocery List should ultimately be a reflection of what ends up in your fridge, pantry, and freezer week after week because you eat those foods often. And it's no surprise to hear that this can only happen if you're truly sticking to The Meal Planning Method and making that grocery list before you go to the store each week! Here's an example of what our Master Grocery List looks like...  What you see here is 2 copies of my Master Grocery List on one standard-sized letter paper.
PRO TIP: For grocery list making, in general... it's good practice to include a food item and cross it off if not needed, rather than trying to remember to add it and forgetting, or worse, thinking you have enough of an item and turns out you don't. :/ Download this Microsoft Word version of the Master Grocery List template to start yours today!
