This weekly family meal plan is dairy-free and full of fabulous dinner recipes for anyone wanting lactose-free options in their meal plan.
I recently asked The Organised Housewife community for some good dairy-free recipes, and I was inundated with fabulous lactose-free dinner and baking ideas (thank you all!) – so have rolled them into this fabulous dairy-free dinner plan.
The reason I asked was because one of my children has terrible eczema. After trying many things, we eliminated dairy from her diet this last month and it eased it! After having the smallest amount of dairy through the week it flared up again, so we are now on the hunt for some good dairy-free dinner and baking recipes. Feel free to share any recipes you recommend in the comments section below.
