<\/a><\/p>\nOur friends over at Shape Magazine<\/em> have a great meal plan<\/a><\/strong> full of delicious-sounding recipes like Roman-Style Roast Chicken or Herbed Rice that can be made with simple fridge and pantry staples. The best part is, everything can be purchased ahead of time, so you just have to make one trip the grocery store a week. All it takes is a little planning ahead and you can avoid a “what am I having for dinner” moment or an emergency fast food run.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Though we love Shape<\/em>‘s suggestions, we couldn’t resist adding some of our own favorite recipes to the list of easy, healthy, plan-ahead meals.
