Meal planning can be a real downer. The scheduling, recipe searching<\/a><\/strong> and plotting can be all-out exhausting. And not to mention the logistics, which can be half the battle with any one family’s calendar looking more like a tornado than an organized schedule.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For me personally, meal planning is incredibly fun. I’m one of those people who gets excited to go to the grocery store<\/a><\/strong>, clip coupons and plan out my husband I’s meals for the week. But I realize I’m not the average housewife, even though it has been one of the most challenging parts of marriage. However, I find the challenge to be half the fun.<\/p>\n

But for the other 99 percent of people who despise planning meals, there’s hope; and it comes in the form of a new online meal planning service that helps you plot out your week’s eats in just a few simple steps.<\/p>\n

Sound good? We thought you might say that.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The website is siansplan.com<\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong>an online meal planning tool designed to help busy families simplify their cooking, shopping and meal planning process. The woman behind the site is Sian Breslin, the owner of an Ireland-based cooking school and guest house. She hopes her site helps busy families reduce food waste, make finding recipes<\/a><\/strong> easier, and ease the process of planning meals. Below is a brief video description of how the site works.<\/p>\n
