Is anyone back meal planning

[lastqueenofscotland]

With supermarkets slightly better stocked I’m back to meal planning

Please share yours!

Mine was/is

Yesterday: lentil shepherds pie with green beans
Tonight: teriyaki fried rice
Tomorrow: dahl with garam masala roasted cauliflower
Wednesday: fajitas
Thursday: falafel and hummous salad

lol @lastqueenofscotland love that we both have come back to African Peanut Stew having not had it in ages!

Is that the recipe on the Vegan Society website or a different one?

@IJumpedAboardAPirateShip I have to ration it or I’d literally eat it 3 times a week

I made enough for 3 meals and every evening have sneakily had another small bowl as a midnight snack 😬

@LauraMipsum I do the Oh She Glows recipe but also add lime which is an additional level of inauthenticity but I like it

Ooh thanks - looks similar to the one I usually do but nicer!

Sat - mushroom & chestnut pie
Sun - same again
Mon - lentil spag bol
Tue - sweet potato and black bean rice bowl
Wed - vg sausage and potato
Thu - lasagna
Fri - Leftovers

@LauraMipsum your pie sounds great, do you have a recipe?

Saturday: curry take away
Sunday: roast carrots, parsnips, tofu/tempeh and quinoa (finishing off crap in the fridge!)
Monday: red lentil lasagne
Tuesday: mushroom risotto
Wednesday: DD’s birthday so guacamole and crisps followed by fish fingers and chips and green beans followed by birthday cake on her request!
Thursday: THANKSGIVING! Turkey for the omni’s, happy pear Christmas wreath for the vegans, green bean casserole, cornbread, mashed potatoes, stuffing, pumpkin pie and bourbon slushies
Friday: thanksgiving leftovers and/or pizza

Pirate it was loosely based on this recipe

realfood.tesco.com/recipes/chestnut-mushroom-shallot-pie.html

But vegan butter, and I used a mix of mushroom stock and a slug of red wine vinegar instead of veg stock and red wine, and shortcrust pastry as DD isn’t keen on puff.

Today - roast beef, roast potatoes, cauli cheese, carrots and green beans

Rest or week in no particular order

Korean beef rice bowl
Green mac n cheese
Malaysian red coconut chicken
Chicken thigh and chorizo tray bake

This thread is so inspiring! I'm feeling a bit rough so lounging in bed and making lists. Aiming to plan until end of Christmas holiday if possible, have done this previous years and it massively reduces stress for me.

Can't wait to try the peanut stew but we only have crunchy peanut butter so will have to be next week.

This week:
Saturday - meatballs and pasta (made with a packet of sausages skinned and rolled into balls) DD pasta and pesto, DS2 pasta and grated cheese
Sunday - chicken stir fry with noodles and prawn crackers, DD veg stir fry, DS2 chicken noodles and prawn crackers
Monday - spaghetti and cannellini beans, DS2 mac cheese and bacon
Tuesday - tomato and lentil soup and toasties, just toasties for DS2
Wednesday - pizza and salad
Thursday - cottage pie with carrots and peas, DS2 roast beef, yorkies and roast potatoes
Friday - fishfingers, chips and beans

Meal planning in this house is made more complicated by vegetarian DD and DS2's very limited diet!

I’ve been looking for a post like this. I am doing my online food shopping and have no ideas!

Thank you!

I have all the stuff in for peanut stew but there’s been leftovers from the night before for my lunch every day this week so haven’t made it yet. I also may have bought enough cheese to be eating cheese and biscuits every day through to Christmas!
