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 learning templates is much more important than recipes since you can just riff on them with whatever you have to hand that’s within the budget. Recipes are good for the more fiddly things or treats.

That a good thing to keep in mind.
