Weekly Meal Plan 6

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

This is the sixth 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 £32.57.

The printable shopping list can be found here.

Remember to check your cupboards before shopping, in case you already have any of the items on the list.

You can find more of my Meal Plans here:

Meal Plan 2 – £33 from Aldi

Meal Plan 4 – £35 from Aldi (all 30 minute meals!)
Meal Plan 5 – £35 from Aldi

Monday:

Pizza Chicken
(Click the link above to go to the recipe)

For the cheese you can use 75g of cheddar from your shopping list as a substitution OR add a ball of Buffalo Mozzarella to your shopping (there are notes in the recipe).

Serve with baked potatoes and chopped salad (lettuce, 1/3 cucumber and 1 pepper – dress with some olive oil/balsamic vinegar/dressing whatever you like to serve on salad).

Reserve the leftover passata for the Beef Enchiladas recipe later in the week.

Tuesday:

Salmon Fish Fingers
(Click the link above to go to the recipe)

Served with homemade chips, peas and a yoghurt and cucumber dip.

Annoyingly, Aldi don’t sell breadcrumbs right now. You can either buy them elsewhere or you can make your own. Make your own by putting stale bread into a food processor or grating it. You can freeze it first to make it easier.

For the Chips:
1kg Potatoes
2tbsp Oil
2tsp Salt
2tsp Garlic Granules

1. Preheat the oven to 200c, and cut your potatoes into chips (I don’t bother peeling as am lazy )
2. Coat in the oil, salt and garlic granules and spread on a single layer on a baking sheet.
3. Bake for 45-60 minutes (depending on your chip size!) turning once.

To make the dip: mix 2/3 cucumber cut into tiny chunks, with 250g yoghurt and the juice of 1/2 a lemon (add more to taste).

Wednesday

Beef Enchiladas
(Click the link above to go to the recipe)

I used the small tortillas from Aldi, but you could use large ones if you want a neater enchilada wrap!

Use the partial carton of passata that you saved from earlier in the week (along with another full one).

Serve with a dollop of the yoghurt.

Thursday

Cream Cheese Pasta
(Click the link above to go to the recipe)

Use 200g of cream cheese rather than 250g in the recipe, as that’s the size of the Aldi packs.

Use the peas from your shopping rather than Petit Pots in the recipe.

Replace the Parmesan in the recipe with 75g Cheddar from the shopping list. (What can I say, I LIKE IT CHEESY!)

Friday

Sweet Potato & Peanut Butter Slow Cooker Stew
(Click the link above to go to the recipe)

This recipe actually serves 6, so you will end up with 2 extra portions for lunch or to freeze for later.

Serve with boiled rice.

If you don’t have a slow cooker, there are oven instructions on the recipe post above.

Garnish with the salted peanuts.
