GET MEALS PREPPED When the school year gets into full swing, meal planning can help make your days run smoothly. Plan to have lunch packing items on hand for back to school. Decide if it is easier to pack lunches the night before or first thing in the morning or to pack several lunches for the week on Sunday night. Also try planning some easy weeknight meals that you can prepare in advance to streamline busy evenings. Slow cooker or freezer meals may be helpful as you adjust to a new back to school routine as well. The key is to have a plan or you may find yourself in the drive through more than you would like.
