Seat at the Table

Stephanie Longstreth, Home and Food Content Creator, the vision behind Stephanie Cooks For A Crowd

Welcome to the table. This is where all my free kitchen printables live — every weekly meal plan PDF with its grocery list, my printable planning guides, and the cheat sheets I keep taped inside my own cabinet doors. It’s the library I built for my newsletter subscribers, and I add something new to it all the time.

Pull up a chair. Everything below belongs to my newsletter subscribers, and getting a seat takes about ten seconds — drop your email on anything you want and it opens right here, no waiting and no second page.

This page contains affiliate links. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. If you purchase through my links, I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. Thank you for supporting StephanieCooksForACrowd.com!

Every Saturday morning the newest meal plan goes out to my newsletter first, and it lands here right after. Below that you’ll find the rest of the free kitchen printables — every planning guide I’ve made, printable lists of my recipe collections, the whole archive of past meal plans, and a place to tell me what you’d like me to make next. Jump straight to any of it:

📂 Free Kitchen Printables — My Planning Guides

Nine printables so far, and every one of them started as something I actually needed in my own kitchen — the cookout math, the scaling fractions I could never do in my head, the sourdough schedule taped inside a cabinet door. Here’s what’s on the shelf right now:

Fall Brunch for 8–12

A whole brunch on two pages. One side is the menu and the table — what I served, what I set it on, and the party favor. The other side is the timeline, starting a month out and running to the morning of, with room to write your guest list. This is one of the six menus from the cookbook I’m writing now, and I wanted you to have a complete one.

Packing Lunches, Honestly

Two pages for the fridge. One side is everything I learned packing lunches before seven in the morning — I was a lunch lady for a few years, so I have seen with my own eyes what comes back uneaten at three o’clock. The other side is the lunchbox lineup itself, with room to write in the things your own kids will really eat.

The Cookout Game Plan

Two tiers, zero stress — pick your level and throw the party. Whether you want homemade everything or a bag of chips and a folding chair, this printable lays out your whole cookout both ways: the menu, the decor, outdoor games, party favors, and the cookout math so you never run short on burgers or ice.

Scale-It-Up Cheat Sheet

How much chicken do you buy for 16? How many rolls for a crowd? This printable does the math for you — buy-vs-plate meat amounts, the doubling-and-tripling fractions that trip everyone up, what’ll actually fit in your slow cooker, and an “I already did the math” headcount table from 8 to 24 people. Tape it inside a cabinet door and stop doing fractions in your head.

Summer Vacation Cooking Kit

Don’t lug your whole kitchen to the beach, but don’t start from scratch either. This printable has a pantry-bag checklist, small-cooler essentials, and four easy vacation meals (just five grocery items each) — plus my Crockpot BBQ Pulled Pork you can set before bed.

Download PDF →

Shower Planning Template

A printable planning template for baby showers, bridal showers, and any gathering where you’re hosting a crowd. Timelines, food planning, and the details that keep things from falling apart the morning of.

Download PDF →

Sourdough Starter Quick Start

Flour, water, and a jar — that’s where every starter begins, and this printable walks you from that first feeding all the way to your first real loaf. A simple feeding rhythm, what a happy starter actually looks like, and the quick fixes for when it seems like nothing’s happening.

Download PDF →

Mediterranean Quick Start

You don’t have to overhaul your whole kitchen to eat the Mediterranean way — you just start with one swap at a time. A short starter grocery list, easy swaps for the meals you already make, and a week of simple ideas to ease in without the overwhelm.

Meal Planning Made Simple

The five-step system I use to feed all seven of us without the five o’clock scramble. Pick your nights, shop your own kitchen first, reinvent one meal, build in variety, and keep a Plan B for the nights that go sideways — the whole method on a single page for the fridge.

🖨️ Printable Recipe Lists

These are recipe lists rather than planning guides. Each sheet is a whole collection on a single page — my chicken recipes for a crowd, my casseroles for a crowd, my desserts for a crowd, and my side dishes for a crowd — with a box to check beside every recipe and a code to scan to pull it up while you’re cooking. Print one for the fridge, or take it with you when you’re working out who’s bringing what.

Chicken Recipes for a Crowd

The chicken dinners I lean on hardest — casseroles, skillet suppers, fried cutlets and cold chicken salads, all on one page with a code to scan for each one.

Download PDF →

Desserts for a Crowd

The desserts that travel well and cut into squares, all on one page with a checkbox and a scannable code for each one. Good for the fridge door when you’re deciding what to bake.

Download PDF →

Casseroles for a Crowd

Every casserole from my roundup on one page, each with a box to check and a code you can scan to pull the recipe up on your phone. This is the sheet I’d hand you if you asked what to bring.

Download PDF →

Side Dishes for a Crowd

The sides I bring when I need to round out a table — one page, one box to check per recipe, and a code to scan when you’re standing in the kitchen with your hands full.

🪑 Tell Me Your Story

I love hearing how these recipes and plans land at your table — a favorite meal, a memory, a photo of dinner night. And if there’s a printable or a recipe you wish lived here, tell me that too. A lot of what ends up on this page started as a subscriber request.

More good stuff coming soon. Thanks for pulling up a chair. 🪑
