Following up from this post about how to save on your cooking budget and ensure that you eat healthy at the same time.
A key part of preparing that shopping list is item (4) i.e pre-planning meals for the upcoming month and then determining whether those ingredients are available/ if they must be bought with that months shopping. As you know I love to write lists and so I have a rough list showing all the different categories of foods I like to eat and then I can mix and match as necessary so it lists carbs, vegetables and proteins.
For the month of August, this is what I have in store to cook. With time, I shall start to take pictures and a re-cap of what works and what doesn’t.
Pasta with chicken livers and bacon (and herbs) & cabbage with mustard seeds.
Roasted vegetables with couscous. Dessert: Coconut and Cardamom Pannacotta
Potato Bake & Roasted butternut. Dessert: Fresh Spearmint Ice cream and Vanilla frozen Yoghurt
Baked mushroom risotto. Dessert: Orange self-saucing pudding
Happy eating!
