One of my January resolutions was to get back into planning our weekly dinners in advance. With our house move last year meal planning really slipped off the radar and our shopping bill and waist lines grew.

Here’s what’s on the menu this week...

Monday: Book Club meeting - Pizzas

Tuesday: Chicken risotto

Wednesday: Beef bourgunion with rice

Thursday: Sausage pasta with brocolli

Friday: Rainbow Chilli

Saturday: Out with friends

Sunday: Chicken and Prawn Paella

What’s on your table this week?

I think meal planning definitely helps me keep on top of food and reduces the amount of waste. I love some of the meals you have planned... the chicken risotto sounds delicious!

This sounds like a lovely menu. This is my last week as a vegan for veganuary so I have lots of vegetable curries and vegan burgers this week.

Oh, I really need to get back into meal planning. It makes my life so much easier (and healthier) when I do plan but I am a bit of a lazy bugger and find it a chore to organise it all! Your meals all sound my cup of tea, especially the paella (which I haven't had for ages).

I like the sound of your rainbow chili night. I would make mine with quorn mince as I am a vegetarian but I am pinning your recipe for later!

The sausage pasta and the risotto sounds really yummy. It's so good that you prep your meals so far in advance x

Love the sound of chicken and prawn paella! You are right, meal planning can save you so much money, we have cut over £20 off our weekly shop but only buying exactly what we need for the week and it stops us getting to 4pm and not having a clue what we are supposed to be cooking for tea xx

I LOVE sausages, pasta and broccoli but never thought of trying them again. Thanks for the inspiration for lunch one day next week! Thanks for linking up too x
