Here’s 5 super speedy family friendly dinners that won’t break the bank! For my 16th meal plan I really wanted to create another weekly signpost to some of my super speedy recipes that can be on the plate in 30 minutes or less. What’s more, they’re cosy and comforting to see us through another cold January week. I’ll be sharing this meal plan on Instagram, Facebook and TikTok, so watch out for the videos so you can cook along. For reference, I shopped for this Meal Plan in January 2023 at Aldi and it cost £29.59.
Why use a meal plan?
⭐️ Knowing exactly what food to buy for avoids food waste, saving you money. ⭐️ Having a plan for dinner each night avoids the mental load of “what’s for dinner?” questions every night. The printable shopping list can be found here. ➡️ Remove ingredients for any meals that you don’t want to cook. ➡️ The shopping list includes the cheapest version of each ingredient. Obviously if you want to buy lower fat mince or free range etc, that’s personal choice. ⭐️ This recipe uses shop-bought meatballs for a quick win. ⭐️ The recipe here calls for 300g mushrooms, the shopping list uses 250g as that’s the pack size available at Aldi. Feel free to add other vegetables if you like. Dinner 2 ⭐️ Made in 15 minutes. ⭐️ A fun, serve-yourself, sociable dinner. ⭐️ NOTE! If you’re using the shopping list, there’s enough included to make DOUBLE the slaw in this recipe. Then save the rest to serve with the Naan Pizzas tomorrow! ⭐️ Quick prep and just 10 minutes in the oven. ⭐️ Customise your own toppings – perfect for a family pizza night. ⭐️ Serve with the extra slaw you made yesterday! Dinner 4 ⭐️ Whole meal ready in just 10 MINUTES! ⭐️ Ideal for cooking up a fakeaway in 30 minutes. ⭐️ If you’re using the shopping list above, we’ve included rice and broccoli to serve with this dish. Quick reminder, the printable shopping list can be found here. If you’ve found this useful, let’s be friends on Instagram @tamingtwins
