Are you looking for meal plans to help with the weekly chaos of what to cook for the family? Then grab some inspiration from our weekly meal plans! I share a bit of everything on here from air fryer recipes, slow cooker recipes and everything in between.
You can check out our meal planning page for more ideas!
Here is what our meal plan looks like for the week ahead.
Monday
Slow Cooker Beef Stew And Mustard Mash. Comfort food to break in the week. Craig is usually later on Monday so having a slow cooker meal is perfect as I don’t have to worry about keeping it warm.
Tuesday
Homemade lasagne. Craig will be making this. His lasagne tastes so much better than mine!
Wednesday
Slow cooker chicken curry served with mini cheesy naan bread and basmati rice. A nice midweek treat!

Thursday
Potato gratin. Another winter warmer. Cheesy potato goodness!
Friday
MFC. During lockdown with little to no access to takeaways due to shielding, I wanted to make something fun for the boys as they were missing eating out. So M.F.C was born! (Mum’s Fried Chicken). I ordered all of the authentic takeaway containers from Amazon, including chicken popcorn containers, fries boxes and even the kids’ meal boxes. It went down a storm and now it’s a treat that we have every now and then. It’s so much cheaper than a genuine takeaway too!
Saturday
Roast chicken dinner with all of the trimmings. (And lots of thick gravy).
Sunday
We will be eating out today as we are off out pumpkin picking and attending a family press event.
What have you got planned for this week?
You can find lots more tasty and simple to prepare family-friendly dinners on our Recipes Page and our Meal Planning Section.
What a fab meal plan and the beef stew is the perfect way to start a new week. We love making our own fried chicken. I think the takeaway containers is such a lovely touch. x
It’s so much cheaper isn’t it?!
The containers are great, they are inexpensive and make it a bit more fun for the kids. x
It’s so good to meal plan these day’s less waste
So very true Allan! 🙂
I love the idea of MFC; how fun!!
I like the sound of the Slow Cooker Mild Chicken Curry! It’s a lovely thought to be able to come home from work and it’s ready to eat!
I need some more slow cooker recipes so these sound great to try so does Mum’s Fried Chicken!
Wow! Lasagne on a weekday is pretty amazing. For me to prepare the vegs, make the mince meat, the white sauce and then the assembling is too much time for a weekday dinner. Have fun at the pumpkin picking.
your beef stew sounds delicious just what is needed now the evenings are colder
Lovely menu – enjoy your eating out on sunday
All sounds good!
Love homemade lasagne!
