Weekly Meal Plan 5

 Using a weekly Meal Plan takes the drama out of midweek dinners. Stay balanced, save money and save your sanity!

This is the fifth weekly meal plan I will be sharing on Instagram, Facebook and TikTok, and so many of you asked for all of the info in one place, so here it is. Watch out for the videos of each recipe coming each night this week, so you can cook along.

For reference, I shopped for this Meal Plan in May 2022 at Aldi and it cost £34.68.

Monday:

Oven Baked Fajitas
(Click the link above to go to the recipe)

Serve with the Mini Wraps, 100g of the grated cheese, the avocado, and some of the 200g of yoghurt.

Tuesday:

Sticky Sausage Traybake
(Click the link above to go to the recipe)

Sometimes Aldi sell bags of ready chopped “Casserole Vegetables” which include all of the vegetables in this recipe ready prepared and they are good value. Annoyingly they didn’t have them in stock at the time of my writing this, but if they do you could substitute for all of the vegetables and save yourself some chopping!

You can use whatever combination of similar root vegetables you prefer. 

Wednesday

Slow Cooker Beef Curry
(Click the link above to go to the recipe)

Use 700g of beef instead of the 1kg mentioned in the recipe (1kg is for 6 portions). You can also increase the spinach from the recipe if you like as you’ll have a larger bag.

Replace the 200g of curry paste with 4 tsp of Medium Curry Powder (as Aldi don’t sell paste).

Serve with the poppadoms, rice, extra mango chutney and yoghurt on the side.

Thursday

Halloumi Bake
(Click the link above to go to the recipe)

Double the recipe listed (as that’s only for 2 people). I used 2 x 500g packs of Courgettes and 1 Aubergine for the doubled recipe (it should be 2 aubergines) but this was a cheaper way of having the same weight of vegetables and still tastes great.

Serve with the Bake at Home Baguettes.

Friday

Tuna Pasta Bake
(Click the link above to go to the recipe)

No notes on this one, apart from it’s my new shortcut and I actually think it tastes better than a traditional Tuna Pasta Bake – what do you think?!
