As a solo Mum 5 nights a week, it’s really important to me to be able to purchase food that can last at least 3-4 days so I don’t have to drag my boys to the shop after work / daycare / scho when we are all exhausted.
This week my haul includes a quarter red cabbage (only a little needed in each dish), a whole cauliflower (so versatile), a bunch of parsley, mint & coriander (make the same dish with different herbs & it changes it big time), broccolini (great in salads or anything really), cheese (I currently have haloumi, goat’s cheese, grana Padano & persian feta in the fridge).
I want a different taste every night so am going to work on a weekly meal planner that is easy to do 3-4 nights with entry of variety but not too many ingredients.
