Overwhelmed by the task of feeding your household? Stumped by having to come up with dinner ideas night after night, week after week? Don’t be. It’s actually super-easy. The key to maintaining a healthy diet is balance. All you have to do is make sure every meal includes this stuff —
When you break it down into basic pieces like that, it’s really a snap. Here’s a sample of how that strategy plays out over the course of a week:

See? Just like that. Pretty much nailing it.
Ahh, I thought this was going to be the answer to all my problems of deciding what to eat!
It is.
Oh.. Sorry. Excuse me while I slice an apple for tea. 😉
Where is the citric acid group? Jeez.
Those are the Sour Patch Kids, which go without saying.
Yessssss.
Did you come up with this after years of thoughtful research? Just wait until you get a lot older and you can’t even have half of this stuff on your plate!!!
Trial and error. Mostly error.
This is AMAZING! I follow this plan every week.
What a coincidence!
Things always get real down n dirty around Sunday. I’m too busy sleeping to cook!
Oh, see, I’m the opposite. On Sunday, I’m full of intention. Monday, still coasting on it. Tuesday, things are starting to get tired. Wednesday, barely holding it together. By Thursday, we’re getting very close to fend-for-yourselves territory.

I know it’s bad week when I serve scrambled eggs on Tuesday. because it only goes down hill from scrambled eggs.
Ain’t that the truth.
We just pretty much just repeat the Friday Saturday cycle at my house. Those other day’s plans are for like….holidays or something. I got scaird for a second when I started reading this one…
Heh. We have many a Friday/Saturday repeat rotation around here too.
I’m pretty sure you’re a genius. Because LIME WEDGE.
Full of VITAMIN C, right??
So…if my Sunday looks like your Friday, can you imagine what our Thursday is like? There’s a reason I walk into the burger joint down the road and everyone roars, “NANCY!”
Awww. I like that. I’ve always wanted to be greeted as a regular somewhere, like Norm on Cheers.

Thank you!
