This 7-day meal plan is packed with some delicious family friendly recipes – plus a recipe for Rocky Road Cookies which the kids can help you make!
I’m sure those of you who are in lockdown are becoming tired of the same old routine and I know from experience, with kids being at home means I’m in the kitchen a lot more. With so much going on around us at this time, I wanted to make sure there was a variety of meals for the family, full of different flavours to keep the taste buds tantilised! This week I’ve included three different types of seafood – fish, salmon and tuna along with other great options and a Rocky Road Cookie recipe which the kids can get involved in making!
BENEFITS OF MEAL PLANNING
Each week I plan my meals for the following week, this is called meal or menu planning. Some think it’s not worth it, but it really is a simple task that takes 5-10 minutes to plan one week of meals. The money and time that these five minutes save me throughout my week, makes it well worth the effort.
