Weekly Family Meal Plan #108

A weekly family meal plan that’s full of hearty, home-cooked meals that are bursting with flavour, despite being quick and easy to throw together.

I took last week off work to spend time with my family, and more importantly, to spend some time on myself. I didn’t want to spend hours in the kitchen every night, but still craved delicious, warm, and hearty meals that were fitting for a cold winter’s night. This is why this week’s meal plan consists of tasty home-cooked meals that can be thrown together pretty quickly, and even utilised over more than one night.

FRIDAY

Nachos – I love the hack in this recipe which says to bake the nachos briefly before topping with all your ingredients so they don’t go soggy. After all, nobody wants soggy nachos – lol!

Crumbed Lamb Cutlets with Salad – cutlets are great for young children because they’re easy to hold on to and eat. My children are past this point, but still love this dinner simply because it’s super tasty!
