Our weekly meal plan! 4th - 10th November. #MealPlanningMonday

Our weekly meal plan

Last weeks meal plan went well despite me swapping a couple of days around. Our favourite meal by far was the Hearty Beef, Carrot & Mustard Pie! The whole of my family thoroughly enjoyed it and wanted more. It's one that will be going on our list for again and again! I have finally found a meal that I wasn't that keen on, the Creamy Pork Meatball & Mushroom Tray Bake. It was just too creamy and a bit sickly and the meatballs were not that nice. It's not bad, out of all the Gousto meals we've had there was this one and the gnocchi that we had ages ago that we were not keen on which really isn't bad going.

This week we're having a break from Gousto, all the meals I was going to pick were one's we've had before and I can easily make myself as I have the recipes some of the ingredients already in and the fresh one's I just bought with the weekly food shop.

On the menu this week we have:

Monday - Stu is cooking and it's going to be a surprise as we have no idea yet. Something out of the freezer probably but I don't mind, I'm having a night off from the cooking.
Tuesday - Chicken and bacon pasta. My family is having this, I'm not. It's too cheesy and has broccoli in but they have asked for something like this and I found this recipe. I will have a ready meal out of the freezer.
WednesdayOven baked pork belly & winter veg pot roast with mashed potato - It's a Gousto meal which is basically pork belly, carrots and parsnips cooked in beef stock. You are supposed to cook it in the oven but it's a good one for the slow cooker.
ThursdaySesame Pork & Mushroom Udon Noodle Stir Fry is another of our favourites from Gousto! This was the meal that made Ellie love mushrooms. She was trying to pick them out and in the end gave up and realised she like them. lol
Friday - Fish and chips with mushy peas.
SaturdayRed onion and bacon tart with potato salad.
Sunday - Minced beef, onions and mushrooms in gravy in giant Yorkshire puddings with carrots and mashed potato.

What are you eating this week?

  4. That sounds like a delicious week! We're having pulled pork over baked potatoes tonight (and when I say "we" I mean all the boys; I'll have a plain baked potato with salad). Then I know later in the week we're having a pot roast one night and some chili/cornbread casserole another night. I honestly can't remember what else we put on the menu; mostly because I had very little input and don't really like any of the meals on the menu this week.
