Hello, I hope you’re well! Another week and another meal plan from me! We’re enjoying some family time together, so I’ve scheduled some meal plans in advance, just to be extra organised!
Meal planning helps us to have low food waste which is really important to me. I feel pretty rubbish if we have to throw something away, usually thinking of the environmental impact and the fact that other people struggle to afford food around the world. I am always trying to take steps to make sure we are avoiding overspending on groceries.
This week, for convenience, we’re having some *Gousto dinners! We got a box, of 4 meals, and then the rest of our dinners are made up of using up some items we already have in, including some *Simply Cook kits! Use these links to get 35% off Gousto for a month as a new customer or a very very cheap Simply Cook kit!
I’ve been meal planning for well over 2 years now pretty much every single week. It is a great way for us to save money and I really enjoy having a nice variety of meals to choose from each week.
Each week other lovely bloggers link up their meal plans, to try and share recipes around with one another, inspire each other and hopefully drive a little bit of extra traffic too! I really enjoy running this linky and seeing what meals everyone is cooking that week.

I love the Simply Cook recipe kits for a nice change, but I have never tried Gousto. They do look promising!

They are! Mindful Chef is the best in terms of quality BUT about twice the price of Gousto so a bit steep!
