Meal Plan 14

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

This is the fourteenth 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 September 2022 at Tesco and it cost £35.14.

Why use a meal plan?

⭐️ Knowing exactly what food to buy for avoids food waste, saving you money.

⭐️ Having a plan for dinner each night avoids the mental load of “what’s for dinner?” questions every night.

The recipes:

Dinner 1

⭐️ I used a pack of small wraps here but you could use large ones if you prefer.

⭐️ This is a complete meal with vegetables, carbs and protein, but you could serve with extra tortilla chips or potato wedges if you fancy.

Mexican Lasagne

Say hello to Mexican Lasagne. Tasty chilli with added beans and veggies, layered up with tortillas and cheese and baked until crunchy on top. Is it actually a lasagne? Maybe not. Is it a delicious quick and easy dinner? Definitely!

Dinner 2

⭐️ You can use shop bought breadcrumbs here or make your own by blitzing up (or freezing and then grating!) some stale bread.

⭐️ We used Gran Padano cheese instead of Parmesan as it’s cheaper.

⭐️ We served this with the same coleslaw that you’ll make to go with the prawn tacos. Use half the cabbage and one red onion, plus make up HALF of the dressing from the prawn tacos recipe.

⭐️ 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.

Popcorn Chicken {with Parmesan Breadcrumbs}

Succulent bite-sized chicken pieces with a cheesy, golden, crispy coating. So much flavour without the faff, these fast food-style homemade delights are a winner for a family meal or as part of a buffet-style party platter.
