Meal planning

Happy Friday! We’re in our first full week living in our new house and life is starting to settle back down again. We have lots of boxes to unpack still, and some storage to purchase, plus lots of other jobs. For this reason meal planning is becoming important again. I want to be able to save money, where possible, get a few bargains and make the most of everything we have in. I’m getting back to meal planning this week and really excited about normality returning to our life after a busy month. This week I want to try and ensure that we’re having zero food waste and keep avoid expensive takeaways too. Meal planning helps us to stay organised and saves us money too. Every week I share with you my meal plan for the coming week and provide a post for other bloggers to link up (see below). I love seeing what everyone is linking up meal plan wise, cooking each week and also getting inspiration for my own meal plan. I hope that this will help people to find lots of inspiration, delicious recipes and maybe read some helpful blog posts about meal planning and money saving. Don’t forget to check out my post to help you avoid overspending on your groceries.

Happy Friday! We’ve moved house! It happened yesterday and so I’m a bit behind with everything. This week we’re just going to wing it with meals. I have a couple of ready meals in the fridge, to avoid getting takeaway every night and I’ve got to find a plumber to fit my cooker! Every week I share with you my meal plan for the coming week (except this week of course!) and provide a post for other bloggers to link up (see below). I love seeing what everyone is linking up meal plan wise, cooking each week and also getting inspiration for my own meal plan.

Happy Friday! This week we’re not going to be meal planning as such, as we are just going to be eating and drinking everything that we have in!

Happy Friday! Another week has flown by in a sea of sandpaper and paint over at our new house. I’m REALLY struggling with spinning all of the plates and today I am off to a blogging conference for the weekend. I’m really excited and I have also just realised that next week is our last full week in our flat. This means I’ve got one week left to use up all of the food in the chest freezer, so we can defrost it before moving. Anyway, I won’t chat all day – as I’ve got to get on! I’ve done myself a favour and ordere a few ready meals in so that we can still eat fairly well, and avoid the takeaway too. This week I want to try and ensure that we’re having zero food waste and keep avoiding expensive takeaways too. We need every penny we can save for moving as we are in need of paint, new carpets and lots more! Meal planning helps us to stay organised and saves us money too.

Happy Friday! What a busy week we have had so far. We’ve got the keys to our new house and a LOT of work to do. This means that some of the meals I am sharing on this meal plan I’m not making myself. I’ve decided to do myself a favour and get a few nicer ready meals in so that we can still eat fairly well, and avoid the takeaway. This week I want to try and ensure that we’re having zero food waste and avoiding expensive takeaways too. We’ll need every penny we can save for moving costs as we will need paint, new carpets and lots, lots more! Meal planning helps us to stay organised and saves us money too.
