I did stick mostly to my meal plan for the last few weeks but writing it out by hand sucked. Typing out my meal plan and shopping list is so much easier and neater. Plus, it's all organised by category and only takes me a few minutes to complete.
- Sandwiches - Ham and tomato toasty for the husband and tuna salad for me. (We have a lunch date and the days we eat lunch out I like to plan a light meal)
- Chickpea burgers
- Rice paper rolls
- Oven baked fish and salad
- Pork chops, baked potato and steamed veg
- Rissoles, mash and veg
- Curried sausages and brown rice
The pork chops and fish are already in the freezer. Chickpea burgers show up pretty often on my meal plans but to be honest, they're usually the first thing dropped off the meal plan if we decide to eat out or have a lazy dinner because the bread rolls will go in the husbands lunch and the salad will easily get used up in other meals. Plus a can of chickpeas lasts forever in the pantry.
And the curried sausages is purely a craving. I was talking to mum on the phone the other day while she was cooking it. Instant craving! I've made curry recently in the last few weeks in the form of katsu chicken curry and chicken singapore noodles but I really feel like mums recipe for curried sausages. Plus it's cheap and super easy to make. (Although mum would never have served it over brown rice or veggies other than onions and carrots in the sauce)
