One of my Christmas presents was the Jamie Oliver 5 ingredient meals and I have enjoyed making some of his quick and easy recipes this week. Rose and Pesto prawn pasta was a hit as was pancetta wrapped cod. We are continuing with more fish this week as I think we really need to eat less red meat.
So what is in our meal plan for this week?
Monday: The boys are off to karate so it is fish fingers for them and salmon fishcakes for us. I have some frozen salmon in the freezer which I am not keen on, so will use it up in some homemade fishcakes.
Tuesday: Chicken stir fry
Wednesday: The boys are off to karate again so they can have scrambled egg and chorizo bagels and my husband and I will have Salmon and chorizo.
Thursday: Another Jamie recipe - this time pork escalopes
Friday: My OH and I will have frozen curry that my sister made on Xmas eve and the boys will have a chicken korma.
Sat: Not sure yet.....
Sun: Roast chicken
Little man has also been looking through my cookery book and has chosen the apple crumble cookies to make with me :-)
Are you trying to eat differently this new year?
You are about the 5th person I have seen online mention Jamie Oliver's 5 ingredient meals. I think I am going to have to look into it.
ReplyDeleteEverything sounds so good. x
I am not sure my boys would eat the recipes from Jamie Oliver they are so fussy. You have reminded me that I need to finish my online shop mind! We have decided to stop fighting buy junk food quick from the freezer because actually what happens is we eat out more - we think some fish fingers in the freezer might be healthier - and certainly cheaper.
ReplyDeleteOh i really wsnt that book, i have seen some lovely meals made from it. Have a great week x
ReplyDeleteOh the Christmas holidays flew by, I really do not know where the time went! I am now on the countdown for the February half term. I love the Jamie Oliver book, it is pure genius, I need to get it out for a look again. Thank you for sharing with #MealPlanningMonday x
