If you’re a food allergy mom looking to feed your family healthy, safe meals without adding hours to your day, you probably already know that you need to start meal planning. I’m sure you’ve heard how meal planning can be a total lifesaver and a complete stress reducer.
But did you also know that meal planning along with my other tips specifically for food allergy moms can also help you to:
Take the pressures of cooking EVERY. SINGLE. NIGHT. off your shoulders so you can feel less burnt out.
Allow you to serve NEW foods your family loves so you can stop making the same 5 things over and over again.
Inspire you to cook whole, unprocessed foods so you can remove new brand anxiety and the stress of constantly reading labels.
I see you working hard to feed your family with food allergies, but sometimes you just want a break from all the extra tasks that food allergies require, like cooking everything from scratch and reading labels.
If this is you, it’s time to get off the hamster wheel. Read on to find out why It doesn’t have to be so hard!
I’ve been hearing about the mental weight that moms carry lately. How we do and feel so much more than what people know. This post talks about the high mental weight of a food allergy mom.

Use these easy steps the next time you’re feeling stuck for food allergy dinner ideas. Although meal planning will save you more time and energy in the long run; this process will give you the inspiration and ideas for an easy dinner when meal planning isn’t in the cards!
So here’s the truth mama. Finding the perfect recipe isn’t what’s holding you back from more dinnertime variety with less cooking time and stress.
What’s holding you back is not taking the small amount of time to PLAN how you’ll use the recipes you ALREADY have. The secret is in grouping the recipes and strategically re-using every one of them.
Doing this will not only increase your meal variety, but it will especially save time (up to 24 hours or a full weekend per year) searching for new recipes.
Meal planning for me has become a blend of structure (pre-planning) and flexibility (cooking from the pantry) to fit whatever stage or needs we have as a family and I as a mom. This perfect mixture of structure and flexibility keep my meals inspired with variety but also efficient and running smoothly.
I’m sharing the tips I’ve learned over 11 years of food allergy & special diet shopping that will save you money at the grocery store.
