I honestly didn’t think I was going to enjoy Every Plate as much as I did! What I loved the most was how it pushed me to try some new and different recipes. My family really stepped outside of our comfort box and created some tasty cuisines we wouldn’t normal cook. The food was fresh, the meals quick and easy to prepare, and even the meat expiry lasted well over the week (so I was able to plan the meals for whichever night I wanted them).
MONDAY
Seared Chicken & Chive Sauce with Mash – this meal (like all these Every Plate dinners) was thrown together in just half an hour. The creamy sauce was studded with chives and teamed perfectly with the seared chicken and steamed veggies – plus I love mashed potato on a cold winter’s night!
Recipe and food available from Every Plate.
TUESDAY
Classic Beef Burger with Sweet Potato Wedges – this was not a plain and boring home-cooked burger recipe – the herbed garlic seasoning, aioli and the side of chunky sweet potato wedges made sure of that! Yum yum!
Recipe and food available from Every Plate.
WEDNESDAY
Malaysian Pork Stir-Fry with Ginger Rice – this recipe may just put your local takeaway joint out of business. The fresh ingredients and spices in this dish give it a zingy and full-flavoured taste that had the whole family wanting seconds.
Recipe and food available from Every Plate.
THURSDAY
Hoisin Pork Tacos with Aioli – who said tacos can’t be fun?! I was a little surprised by this combo at first, but the hoisin pork combined with the fresh veggies and aioli tasted delicious wrapped in a tortilla.
Recipe and food available from Every Plate.
FRIDAY
Cheesy Bean Baked Quesadillas with Sour Cream – I love that Easy Plate offer at least one vegetarian meal each week – and this one did not disappoint! This cheesy Mexican and corn quesadilla recipe was especially delicious when teamed with the sour cream.
Recipe and food available from Every Plate.
SATURDAY
Rump Steak and Pesto Butter with Roast Potatoes & Veggies – this recipe put a creative Italian twist on ‘meat and three veg’ with it’s rich pesto butter. Golden chunks of roasted potatoes plus colourful garlic veggies helped complete the creative twist.
Recipe and food available from Every Plate.
SUNDAY
Indian Spiced Chicken with Garlic Rice & Salsa – these meals all had so much flavour – especially this one! The chicken steaks were so succulent and just mildly spiced. They tasted delicious with the fragrant garlic rice and refreshing side salad.
Recipe and food available from Every Plate.
BAKING
Blueberry Muffins with Crunchy Topping – these are so simple to make, have a delicious crunchy topping, plus they make a tasty treat for the kid’s school lunchboxes.
