WEEKLY MEAL PLAN

Monday – Naan Bread Pizza

white enamel roasting tin filled with roast butternut squash and red onions chunks mixed together with sun dried tomato couscous, crumbled feta cheese, toasted pine nuts and fresh torn basil leaves

I’ll be cooking up quick and easy naan bread pizza – topped with sun dried tomato pesto, chargrilled peppers, mushrooms and different cheeses.

I’ll make a quick side dish of roast vegetable couscous to go alongside and any leftovers will be eaten cold for lunch next day.

Tuesday – Roast Vegetable Pasta

white enamel roasting tin filled with roasted chopped Mediterranean style vegetables - red pepper, red onions, aubergines, courgettes and fennel tossed in olive oil and sprinkled with dried oregano, thyme, sea salt and black pepper

I’ll roast a large tray of Mediterranean style veggies and toss with pasta and a quick tomato and basil sauce.

Wednesday – Taco Dogs

hessian table cloth holding wooden chopping board with crusty french baguettes stuffed with hotdogs and dripping in guacamole, roast tomato salsa and jalapeño coleslaw

This easy family dinner just adds zingy Mexican flavours to a classic hot dog for an easy midweek meal.

This dinner the kids just LOVE!

Slide those hot dogs onto crusty baguettes and load them up with guacamole and tomato salsa.

DELICIOUS!

Thursday – Quick Pasta Pesto

white wooden table with two bowls of pasta pesto using fusilli pasta, homemade pesto, spinach, black olives and baby plum tomatoes - two vintage silver forks by the bowls.

Super easy pasta pesto bowls are great as a simple midweek dinner recipe.

This Italian dinner idea is one the kids always love and it literally takes minutes to throw together.

Friday – Fish Finger Wraps

fish finger wraps with lettuce, cucumber, fish fingers, mayonnaise and drizzle of tomato ketchup, bowl of french fires and bottles of vimto also on the table

Super easy dinner for Friday night – grab some soft flour tortilla wraps, load them up with salad, slide on some cooked fish fingers and dollop on the ketchup.

Serve with a side of fries.

We just LOVE this Epic Greek Lamb Stew – absolutely bursting with flavour and loaded with fresh vegetables, herbs and just a sprinkling of feta cheese.
