Starting at planning menus - Any advice? (sopuli.xyz)

I'm looking to have tasty and balanced food while maintaining a reasonable budget and being more organised.
I know how to cook. I already have tasty yet not complicated meals I'm use to make but I never needed to be organised about it before.

So I decided to start to write menu in advance, do a some meal prepping probably a bit of batch cooking.
I found resources online to start following a plan but maybe you have advices for the beginner that I am.

Thank you!

Hey, we're all clueless about things sometimes right! 😅 💖

What you said about the fear-based stocking up is so real. It's an easy way to try to feel like you're in control when you have suffered from food insecurity in the past or when you're nervous about the state of the world generally. It makes total sense that you had that experience!
