Back to meal planning

I have to admit that I haven't been planning my meals lately. So at about 3pm, I search the fridge, raid the freezer or make a quick dash to the shops. This week I've decided that I need to reduce my 3pm stress and the time I spend shopping and start meal planning again. 

I aim for our dinner plates to be half veggies, a quarter meat/tofu/beans and a quarter wholegrains. I use my meal planning to get a balance between meat, fish and vegetarian meals. 

What better place to write my plans than here: 

Monday (we have leftover meat/eggplant sauce)
Make your own wraps: Home-made tortillas with leftover sauce, guacamole, grated cheese, spinach, tomatoes, red capsicum

Tuesday (our only night without after school activities)
Roast chicken, roasted veg (sweet potato, potato, carrots, cauliflower), mushroom sauce, steamed greens (peas and broccoli), zucchini fritters (if I have time)  

Wednesday (children's request - we are taking a small break from frittata Wednesday this term) 
Calamari, soy sausages and salad 

Thursday (out latest night home so need something I can prepare)
Tofu san choy bow (I saw a recipe I wanted to try - I'll post it if successful) 

Friday
Cashew chicken, veggie curry and brown rice

Saturday (I'm working late, so need a meal I can prepare in advance and my partner can hopefully manage to put it in the oven)
Tuna pasta bake (pasta, tuna, corn and tinned tomatoes or tomato soup) and salad

Sunday (I'm working and my partner is doing Ride Around The Bay) Cottage pie (made by my mum: finger's crossed. Surely my blog is an appropriate place to ask her?)
