A weekly meal plan for 2 adults
Cooking for two can mean half-used packs and a fridge full of leftovers. These seven dinners share garlic, onions and rice, and the list below is scaled for two, so the week uses what you buy.
The week
- MondayChicken Stir Fry
- TuesdaySalmon with New Potatoes
- WednesdayMushroom Risotto
- ThursdaySpaghetti Carbonara
- FridayBeef Stroganoff
- SaturdayLentil Dahl
- SundayThai Green Chicken Curry
The week is built around garlic (3 dinners), onion (3 dinners) and white rice (3 dinners), so you buy them once and use them up instead of opening something new every night.
