Quick honesty post 🙋♂️
Quick honesty post 🙋♂️ Life got busy the last few days and I stepped away — but I’m back. What’s been the hardest part of food/meal planning for you this week?

The hardest part is having the energy after work to cook 💤

@Ben Candlin yep! For me I think it’s the socialising it drains me a lot having to constantly talk to people so when I get home I feel very deflated

Hmmm! I’ve had a lot of carb loaded dinners lately so I’m actually craving a tuna steak with some salad today. What about you?

Easy Chilli - made by Charlie (teenager) 😋🍲✅
“This is one of the meals we use in our cook once, eat twice weeks. Nothing fancy — just what actually works for us when life’s busy. If this helps even one family, it’s worth sharing.” No pressure. No teaching. No selling.

Yum, I always add dark chocolate to mine!

@Ben Candlin I would just omit the chorizo, and would probably add red peppers and a splash of Worcestershire sauce to deepen the flavour

Real example from our house this week 👇
Real example from our house this week 👇 Sunday afternoon: 1 hour prep ✔ Chilli in the slow cooker (half eaten, half frozen) ✔ Pasta dish for Tuesday (no stress midweek) ✔ Veg soup dump bag Result? • Monday football night = sorted • Friday = chilli freezer save with different side dish • Leftovers = lunches It made me realise how much thinking food takes — not just cooking it. Curious… would a simple “3 recipes → 4–5 meals” system help your week, or do you prefer cooking daily?

My issue is that I get so bored of the same taste and always want variety ! I find for me it works better if meal prep can be used for different things (eg if it’s chilli or spaghetti Bol, i have the option between rice, pasta , or jacket potato to pair with it) it can’t be the same meals or I’ll dread eating and be unable to eat them for a long time after
