“It was shocking to me! It also showed how much we all just want healthy, simple meal plans.” Jenn says part of the magic was that she was perfecting how to meal prep along with her followers. “Growing up, I had two working parents and two siblings—and my parents weren't meal planners,” she says. “So I wanted to learn how to eat nourishing, affordable food—and meal planning takes the guesswork out of the question, ‘what's for dinner tonight?’ It’s a big favor for yourself.” Now, Jenn’s pouring her ideas into her debut cookbook, Don't Think About Dinner.
