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.

MONDAY
Homestyle Ground Beef Casserole – This unique take on the humble casserole is super delicious and perfect for wintery nights.
TUESDAY
Oven-Baked Salmon, Vegetables and Mash – Not only is salmon amazingly good for you, but it’s delicious!
Brush 4 pieces of salmon with butter or oil, add seasoning and cook in an oven-proof dish at 180°C for 10-15 minutes until it easily flakes with a fork. Serve with vegetables and mashed potato.
WEDNESDAY
Lemon and Pepper Chicken, Zucchini Slaw Pitas – Some midweek nights are so busy when you’re running kids around. This quick recipe is a great time saver that will fill hungry tummies and keep everyone happy.
THURSDAY
Tuna Green Chile Zucchini Casserole – this is a keto dish that makes a nice change if you’re wanting a lighter meal. If you think the kids won’t eat the chilli, you can simply remove it from the recipe.
FRIDAY
Egg and Bacon Rolls – Simply grab your favourite bread rolls and add fried eggs, bacon, cheese and sauce for a super quick and easy dinner that’s sure to be popular with the kids!
