A delicious 7 days easy to cook tasty meal plan
Sometimes you just want a meal plan which involves meals that are quick and easy to cook to make so I hope this helps. All the recipes in this easy to cook tasty meal plan involve minimal preparation and hardly any attention whilst cooking. Perfect for busy mums who have kids back at school!
How to choose easy meals for the family
I always find that easy meals to cook for the family are those which require hardly any preparation and once it is cooking you can easily leave it aside whilst doing other things. This is why I have designed this meal plan for you, the busy parents out there.
Who can enjoy this meal plan?
I have written the meal plan and associated shopping list, which is available to subscribers of my meal planning library, for 4 people. If you are only making for 2 it is easy to reduce the amount of the recipes or alternatively for many you could make 4 portions and freeze some.
If you are cooking for children of course it depends if they are fussy whether they will enjoy these meals. You know your children best but why not give it a try and see what they think?
Essentials for this meal plan
If you have a slow cooker, a hand blender, a large saucepan and a frying pan you should have all you need to make these meals. I don’t believe in recipes that require you to buy lots of bizarre ingredients or equipment. No one wants to do that do they?
