Shopping List & Meal Planner

Happy Mother’s Day!

Yesterday, I decided to crack open my bottle of ‘Mother’s Day Chardonnay’ a little early. Unfortunately, my dear little girl decided that my laptop looked like it was thirsty and needed a drink too.

Needless to say I’m down a laptop until sometime next week.

Thankfully I have an added homeowners insurance to cover the computers in the house for theft, drops, and spills. Even so…

The trip to my local Apple store and lack of my little macbook air has put me behind in my post that I intended to have ready for today.

Instead of my usual recipe, I decided to give out my printable Shopping List & Meal Planner! This is the same exact file that I use to plan my meals and my trip to the grocery store every week.

Simply download the file and print on an 8.5×11 sheet of paper.

Fold along the black line in the middle and keep the shopping list on your fridge to add things during the week so you don’t forget anything. The other side allows for helpful meal planning so you’ll always know what’s coming up or available for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks!

The file is intended for personal use only.
Please do not sell, redistribute, or alter the file in anyway without permission from me first.

The Skinny Fork & ZipList

The Skinny Fork has partnered up with ZipList to bring you the greatest way to save and print your favorite recipes from my site to your online recipe box. You can then add the ingredients to your shopping list with a mere click!

Don’t have a ZipList account? No worries! It’s easy sign up and did I mention the service is free?

ZipList powers recipe boxes and shopping lists that you find online at websites such as MarthaStewart.com, Serious Eats, Epicurious, and now even, The Skinny Fork! What’s better? You can save recipes from any and all of these fantastic partner websites (yes, even mine!) All the recipes will be compiled into one place; your personal online recipe box, so no more hunting around from one site to another.

You can view your online recipe box by clicking the ‘Recipe Box’ button that you will now find located in my navigation next to the FAQs.

You will also be able to access your recipe box and shopping list from any partner website, as well as from ZipList.com! They also have a free mobile app available to help you plan meals and grocery shop wherever you go.

The mobile app is great! It enables you to take your shopping list, grocery deals, recipe box and checklists with you on the go. Use it to and organize, sync up with family members, and even scan barcodes to add items you need for the week. Check off items you add to your cart with one touch as you shop.

To save a recipe from my site to your recipe box, just click the ‘Save Recipe’ button that you will find just below the title of the recipe and before the nutritional values.

That’s it! Super simple and easy to use.

Enjoy!

The ‘Get Forking Skinny Meal Plan’ (Week 6)

Alright everyone – here it is… Week six of the ‘Get Forking Skinny Meal Plan’!

I’m pretty sure that I have everything listed accurately on the shopping list, but if you feel that you find an error just let me know! Again, it’s a learning process.

Just a friendly reminder, I’ve created the shopping list with the notion that you have basic spices and pantry/kitchen staples on hand. So, you’ll want to double check the recipes and the shopping list to be sure that you have everything you need.

Below you will find the shopping list and weekly meal plan.
