Here are 5 simple recipes that will take the strain of thinking about what to have for dinner every evening. ❤️ There are some meals that you can serve up and just know everyone will love. That’s what these are for me, and I hope they are for you too! So many of you have told me that your family love these and now they are all in one place, with a printable shopping list. 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 February 2023 at Aldi and it cost £34.84.
Why use a meal plan?
⭐️ Knowing exactly what food to buy avoids food waste and saves you money. ⭐️ Having a plan for dinner avoids the mental load of “what’s for dinner?” question 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. ➡️ All of the recipes are to serve 4, so if you’re cooking for 2, simply halve the ingredients. ⭐️ A ‘hands off’ oven-baked veggie meal. Dinner 2 ⭐️ An easy one-pan 30 minute meal. ⭐️ Another 30 minute quick win. Dinner 4 ⭐️ All-in-one tray bake that cooks together at once. ⭐️ Great way of using up any vegetables hanging around in the fridge. ⭐️ Zero faff and great for batch cooking. ⭐️ If you’re using the printable shopping list here, Aldi don’t sell fish pie mix or fresh chives, so we’ve included smoked basa, salmon and fresh parsley instead. The prawns pack is also slightly smaller than the recipe, but that’s fine. If you’ve found this useful, let’s be friends on Instagram @tamingtwins
