Meal planning is something that I have really come to love in recent months. Meal planning helps us avoid buying takeaways, helps us to eat healthier meals and has become an important part of my organisational week. Being able to look at a meal plan, and choose what we are going to eat, takes some of the stress away from our day. Today I’m sharing the Meal Planning Linky Week #58. I can’t believe this linky has been running for 58 weeks now. Wow! Thanks to everyone who joins up!
By holding myself accountable, with a meal plan, I am making healthier choices for us. We are cutting out on the takeaways, preparing food from scratch and saving ourselves money too. I have switched from shopping at Tesco to shopping at Aldi and this has helped our grocery budget too.
The Meal Planning Linky is a weekly linky. Naomi and I will be sharing our week’s meal plan and would love you to link yours up too. By sharing meal plans we can all keep ourselves accountable and inspire one another with new ideas and recipes.

I’m planning 7 meals this week. We have been trying to avoid the takeaway so I’ve gradually moved from scheduling 5 meals to 6, and now to 7!
This weeks favourite meal plan: A week of cheap meals from the freezer by Shoestring Cottage
My meals for the Meal Planning Linky Week #58 are:
Some of this week’s meals are the same as last week, as I picked up a few yellow stickered bargains!
Spaghetti & meatballs
Chicken curry, naan, pilau rice & poppadoms
Rigatoni pasta with garlic flatbread (homemade pasta sauce)
Toad in the hole with veggies & gravy
Pork & parsnip traybake with roasties
My *triple slow cooker is really helpful when I want to make us a slow cooker dinner. I’m able to make us a main dish, a side dish and cook a separate meal for Daisy too. Most of this week’s dinners are Daisy friendly so I won’t have to do that much extra cooking for her. This is always a great week for me!
If you’re looking for meal planning inspiration then be sure to read my meal planning tips and my meal planning with mince post. I’ve also got a post about making a roast chicken go further.

I do love toad in the hole we must have that again soon and chicken curry in the slow cooker is such a winner
We’ve been having toad in the hole lately with veggie sausages and it’s been lovely!
Thanks for picking my menu as your fave of the week! It actually went a bit awry last week due to life getting in the way, so I am making up for it this time.
Sorry to hear that Jane – I hope everything is well with you!
Oh mu boys love toad in the hole – I will have to do that again soon.
Daisy was a big fan too! x
Good luck with avoiding the takeaways!
It sounds like you have a tasty week planned. That pizza dough looks amazing.
Thank you – we’ve been doing really well lately!
We did toad in the hole the other week and managed to make a perfect batter. First time for everything. 🙂
That’s fantastic – well done! My husband is the king of the batter really!
Avoiding takeaways and limiting them maybe to once a month is something we are trying to do. Oh wow your brave doing your own batter for toad in the hole.
Such a tasty meal plan! Love toad in the hole – total comfort food. I’m going to give your chicken curry recipe a try very soon – it sounds fab.
