In this week’s meal plan, you’ll find 5 new recipes that have been specially created to bring balance to your diet and help you eat lots of vegetables, carbs, protein from different sources (and not only from meat) and also that have cooking methods that use a small amount of fat.
But why do we only put 5 recipes in the meal plan and not 7?
My goal is to help you to eat healthy meals during the week when you are less likely to have the time to search for recipes, create meal plans and prepare dinner.
Also, I don’t provide a meal plan for more than 5 days as I believe that everyone needs a break from meal planning, to either cook a dish that you know and love, go out to a restaurant or simply take a night off from cooking. I sincerely believe that this is the best way to eat healthily and happily over the long term.
Don’t hesitate any longer and dive into this tasty and balanced meal plan.
Monday: Prawn, avocado and mango fajitas
Fajitas, how do you fold yours? Roll them up, wrap them up or fold them up for a delicious Monday night meal full of flavour.
Tuesday: Green bean and goats cheese salad
This green bean and goats cheese salad is full of flavour. Amanda made this recipe for our lunch a few weeks ago and opened the fridge to find we had used all the salad. So, she added a few more green beans instead!
Wednesday: Fresh tomato, oregano chicken and tagliatelle salad
This is a lovely fresh pasta recipe that uses 8 simple ingredients with that give the dish lots of flavour.
Thursday: Pepper and chorizo Spanish tortillas
A traditional Spanish tortilla is an omelette made from eggs, potatoes, onion and chives, and that is often served cold. In this recipe, I opted to add some more traditionally Spanish ingredients and to serve it hot!
Friday: Lamb curry with cucumber salad
Friday’s meal is a delicious lamb curry, served with peppery rocket and a fresh cucumber sauce, all served in Naan or pita bread for a simple dish full of exotic Indian flavour.
