Okay, we all have to admit the worst part of dinners every week, is actually having to sit down and decide what you are going to cook, It can become easy to fall into the trap of "convienience" where you find yourself signing up to Meal delivery services or just simply getting take away because you just can't be bothered.. Trust me I was definitely doing this more than I would like to admit.
Now I have a list of dinner ideas that I keep saved in my Notes, and each week I scroll through pick my meals by putting a little green tick next to them and I'm ready to do my food shopping.. With no additional Grocery trips to "top up" during the week.
For your convenience I have separated these meals into Red meat, Chicken, Vegetarian & Seafood.
we generally buy a 1kg lot of each meat and divide them into halves, then pop them in the freezer until we are ready to cook, so if I'm picking Enchiladas for the week I will also select another Chicken based meal such as Honey soy chicken & Rice, so I'm getting the most out of the weekly purchases!
