Hello! Happy Friday from me. I hope you’re all keeping well. I’m back now, after the birth of our daughter Aurora, and looking forward to getting back into meal planning.
I’ve been meal planning still, but just haven’t been here to write up these posts! I am going to schedule a few weeks in one go now, and make sure our meal plans are all sorted. I’ve been enjoying some Hello Fresh boxes (*Grab £46 off your first 3 boxes) and also been using up the odd Simply Cook recipe too (*new customers can get a free delivery!).

Meal planning helps us to have low food waste which is really important to me. It also helps us to save money and avoiding overspending on groceries.
I’ve been meal planning for several years now pretty much weekly. 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.
