Are you new to meal planning and prepping or looking for new ideas?
Check out all my previous meal planners. I have been sharing some meal planners for the past two years. I have shared over 30+ Indian vegetarian meal planners, and you can check them out all under the “meal planner” category. All meal planners are unique, and I am sure you can draw some inspiration.
This week’s meal planner!
Usually, I rely a lot on leftovers, and you can see that clearly on my previous meal planners. This week except for two days, I am not using any leftovers. That doesn’t mean I am making elaborate meals either. It’s all simple recipes that you can make in under 30 minutes with prep work done ahead. Few recipes are not on my blog, and they are in the testing phase. Also, I am working on shortcuts for making easy brinjal curry and mor kuzhambu. I will share them soon. PS – Paratha Fridays are back. Please check the prep-work and individual recipe links below the meal planner. Here comes the weekly meal planner with easy family-friendly recipes.
