Free EASY Weekly Meal Plan: WEEK 3

MONDAY

3+ Ingredient Magic Chickpea Salad

The first time I made this chickpea salad it was a revelation.

I couldn’t believe that just opening a can of chickpeas and combining it with lemon juice and parmesan cheese could be sooo delicious.

I instantly wanted to make it again for dinner that night.

Which is always a good sign.

Seriously healthy meals don’t get much easier than this.

OR try these Hot Cheesy Chickpeas for a warm option.

TUESDAY

Steaks with Smashed Olives and Goats Cheese<

Minute steaks are now my go-to way to cook steak because
(a) they’re super quick to cook and
(b) they’re always super tender.

Plus you can get away with using cheaper (and more flavourful) cuts of steak. So they’re an all round winner.

If the thought of bashing the meat scares you, just buy minute steaks from your butcher. Although I must say it is a good way to work out some aggression if you’ve had a tough day… I generally use my metal potato ricer because I don’t have a meat mallet.

For my Irishman and boys I’ll serve with these Ultimate Roast Spuds.

WEDNESDAY

Addictive Peanut Tofu Scramble – If you’re a peanut butter fan (like me) you are going to LOVE this incredibly simple meal. It comes together in minutes but there’s so much going on with the peanutty goodness and the heat from the sriracha you’ll feel like you’ve gotten an excellent return on your time investment.

The tofu does what tofu does best – provide a comforting canvas for the other ferocious flavours to play out on.

THURSDAY

Cheesy Chicken – The first time I made this I just piled everything into a baking dish. Popped it in the oven and set the timer so dinner cooked itself while the boys and I went for a walk to the dam.

So easy!

FRIDAY

Easiest Baked Bolognese – This is my go-to bolognese. It doesn’t quite have the same depth of flavour as my Irishman’s 2-day ragu, but between you and me, it’s pretty close.

I make a big batch about once a month and freeze in jars ready for quick meals for my boys when my Irishman and I are having something more adult.

with Spaghetti for the boys.

SWEET TREAT

Easy Salted Caramel Yoghurt – Love the combo of creamy dessert with sweet sweet caramel and salty sea salt flakes?

But want something a little more waistline-friendly. Then this Easy Salted Caramel Yoghurt might just become your new best friend.

It couldn’t be easier.

Just sprinkle brown sugar on the top of Greek Yoghurt and let the magic ingredient of time deliver you the most decadent yogurt experience.
