“A winter meal planner is a great way to save time, money, and mental energy. As the seasons change, so do our cravings. Winter calls for hearty meals like stews, creamy curries, pies, potjies, pasta dishes, and warming bowls of soup,” she said.

She acknowledges that while cold weather naturally encourages comfort food, consistently planning meals throughout the season can still be a challenge.
