7 Day Meal Planner
Planning dinner every single night can sometimes feel like a bigger job than actually cooking it. So I’ve put together our first full week of easy, flavour-packed dinner ideas to take some of the thinking out of it.
This 7-day dinner plan has a little bit of everything: a quick chow mein to start the week, a comforting vegetarian curry, an easy one-pot pasta, Thai-style chicken burgers, sticky lamb ribs for Friday night, a spicy prawn masala for Saturday and an easy Air Fryer roast lamb to finish the week.
Use the plan exactly as it is, swap days around to suit your schedule or save your favourites for another week.
How to Use This Meal Plan
You don’t have to follow the days exactly.
If Thursday is particularly busy, move the chow mein there. If you’re entertaining on Saturday, swap the lamb ribs and prawn masala around.
Think of the plan as a starting point rather than a strict schedule.
You can also save the individual recipes you love to your My PriMade Recipe Box so you can easily find them again.
A Little Prep Makes the Week Easier
A few small things at the beginning of the week can make dinner much less stressful.
Chop vegetables ahead where possible, make your meatballs in advance, check that you have basics such as onions, garlic, ginger and spices, and defrost meat in the fridge the night before you need it.
Your Weekly Shopping List
Once you’ve chosen the recipes you want to make, use the PriMade meal planner to generate your shopping list.
Check your pantry first and remove anything you already have before heading to the shops.
That way you’re buying only what you need for the week.
Final Thoughts
Meal planning doesn’t have to mean eating the same chicken-and-rice combination five nights in a row.
This week gives you seven completely different dinners while still keeping things practical enough for everyday cooking.
- Monday: Easy Chow Mein
- Tuesday: Pumpkin Tikka Masala
- Wednesday: One Pot Meatball Pasta
- Thursday: Thai Chicken Burgers
- Friday: Easy Sticky Lamb Ribs
- Saturday: Prawn Masala
- Sunday: Easy Air Fryer Roast Lamb
Save the plan, swap things around and make it work for your family.
And if this kind of weekly dinner plan is useful, there are plenty more coming to PriMade.
