Despite actually coming up with last weeks meal plan, admittedly I haven’t stuck to it. With late nights, early mornings and busy days, I just haven’t had the energy. It hit me this week with the amount of food waste we had and it was upsetting. So this week I am trying to get back into it. The plan is to cook every night and make use of the slow cooker. There isn’t much point having one if we choose not to use it. So this is our meal plan, hopefully, you can get some inspiration from it.
Monday
Campfire Stew – I haven’t tried this before but I think it is something the boys will enjoy!
Tuesday
Pulled Pork Rolls and Wedges
Wednesday
Spaghetti Bolognaise – We have always used our own bolognaise sauce, however, it’s just a boring tin of tomatoes. I am going to blitz a bunch of veg this time and really try to bulk it out a bit more. Hopefully, the boys will eat it.
Thursday
Ham, Egg and Chips- Nothing beats a classic!
Friday
BBQ Chicken and Rice – My sister and I recently went for lunch at a local garden centre. We both tried their BBQ Beef and I figured a chicken version wouldn’t be too difficult to do. So I am going to attempt it!
Saturday
Homemade Pizza – The boys love homemade pizza and getting involved with making the bases!
Sunday
and as usual we finish the week with a roast dinner!
Campfire stew is lovely – I’m sure you’re right and you’ll love it!
Have a lovely week and I understand completely about the energy as it happens here too sometimes! The key (for us) seems to be keeping dinners easy and doing prep in advance if possible. I know it’s easier said than done sometimes though!
Good luck with getting back on to the meal planning.
We love Campfire Stew here and Ham, eggs and chips is the best!
Fab meal plan x
I so know how you feel sometimes it just does not happen does it. your meals sound lovely and i adore ham, eggs and chips real comfort food
We are big fans of campfire stew! I love the sound of the ham, egg and chips on the menu, we need this back on our menu soon.
Campfire stew is amazing and one we might have to add to meal plan in the next few weeks. I do like these comfort food it feels super autumnal.
