A few people have asked recently about how we meal plan. I had to admit I'd fallen off the bandwagon a bit but tonight I drew up the weeks meals. I've been thinking about the amount of meat we consume lately and would like to reduce it by having 2 - 3 vegetarian meals/days a week... We may even end up having more. I'm really keen to do it not just for our health but for our pockets.
So here's what I do/look for when planning:
1. I look at the weather hahahahaa crazy right?! But if it's going to be hot then I plan for BBQs and hot weather food, cold days are all about curries or roasts etc.
2. I pour over cookbooks and get inspiration... this is usually on the way to the market (last minute hahaahaha).
Roast pork belly with pork broth, lightly steamed zucchini, cabbage/fennel/mint salad.
3. We go through what we have in our storage freezer/fridge and base meals on what needs to be used - less waste!
4. We always plan for a fish and chips night because frankly it's just the done thing.
So I'd love to know if you meal plan? Also, what are your favourite vegetarian meals and cookbooks?
BBQ Dukkha chicken, greens/mango/avo salad sprinkled with black/white sesame seeds/dry chilli and hummus w/ paprika.
