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!

I think I will go with a bit of both what you said. I really need to plan so I cannot just get into a shop, buy only based on the sales and make a meal out of that. Fortunalty, I'm not that short on money. I just want this change in my cooking habits not to turn into a waste of food or a waste of money.

I love to have a variety of grains and beans at hand, so I should definitly sort out the one I eat a lot, that I could buy I bulk from the one I eat sometimes that I could buy one sale or exactly on the quantity I for one meal.
