2026 Weekly Eats Method | Simplify

Simplify is a pillar of Weekly Eats because simply put, there are things within our control and things outside of our control — plan for what you can.

Sometimes, just having a plan is comforting enough to reclaim time and energy thinking about eating. And as an essential function of everyday living, doesn’t having a meal plan make sense? 

Simplify takes many forms and lands differently for different individuals:

• For busy moms, Simplify might mean batch-cooking. 
• For dorm-dwellers, Simplify could mean only using an Instant Pot or an air fryer. 
• Busy professionals might need meals that travel well or don’t rely on access to a microwave.  

Weekly Eats Simplify templates invite you to (re)direct your attention before you even start shopping or preparing meals.
