This week’s meal plan has seven nights of family friendly dinner ideas, with a variety of flavours and something for the whole family.
Each week I try and make sure I include a good variety of options when I’m planning out weekly family dinners. I hope you find some dinner ideas like sweet and sour meatballs, Mongolian lamb stirfry and even raw coffee bites for a pick me up when you need one!
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.
