I'm so happy! Everyone needs something different but I think the basis is the same - did you find the meal planning template download? It's in the blog post linked if it helps!
Have been wondering this for a while: do you use butter (or coconut oil) instead of olive oil for budget reasons or health related or just flavour? I’ve always been lead to believe that olive oil is the healthiest, but the prices have gone through the roof recently and there’s so much conflicting information out there on seed oils that I don’t know what to opt for… I also have coronary heart disease in the family so saturated fats scare me to a degree 😅
I so hear you - nutrition information can all be so different! Personally I've never liked olive oil (I drank from a bottle of it by mistake as a kid and now it makes me gag!!) so that combined with the smoke point being lower means I just don't really work it in to how I cook. I mostly use butter because it's the most local thing I can use that I also like, and then I keep coconut oil for frying and for when I'm making something dairy free if people need that. I tried a local unrefined rapeseed oil but that taste came through in all the cooking and I just cannot do it!
Watching this as I am ordering my weekly food shop. Recently found your channel and so happy I did. Quick question have you always lived in England or did you live here then move to America and then come back? I found your channel and thought your accent was Australian at first ha!
@ ha! It did I forgot about breakfast dinners and how good they can be. Also we do a pizza night one night per week think it’s my girls fav meal of the week as she likes to help roll the dough etc and pick the toppings!
Another great video, keep them coming. Thank you
Thank you for tuning it! I will do! ❤️
I’m not good at meal planning AT ALL! This has been the most helpful video I’ve watched on it I think. Gonna try it and see how it goes!

Oh I didn’t see that but I will check it out!
I really struggle to think of meals! My son is fussy and I find I cook the same things so I almost don’t need a meal plan 😫
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that if it’s working for you!
Exactly! His palate will grow as he does.

I hope it helped the weekly shop! We did live in California for 12 years and it comes out in my accent sometimes as Australian! 😜
