    Indian Meal Plan with recipes for a week. Day wise weekly Indian Meal plan with recipes, grocery list and meal prep tips for everyday dinner under 30 minute.

    So a new week starts from tomorrow, and more than anything, what worries every busy woman like me is what to cook for my family so that despite a busy weekday schedule there is healthy homemade dinner on the table. And so you asked me to come up with a menu plan for all three meals which are doable, especially for those who have a very busy schedule.

    So, in this weekly Indian menu plan I have added ideas where you can do some batch cooking and repurpose one dish for a meal sometime during the week. I personally spend 2 hours doing meal prep and meal plan and for rest of the week most of my meals (full meals) are on table in almost 30 Minutes. Hope this helps you to plan your meals better an with less effort, no matter you are working person, stay at home Mom or work from your home person.  

    Indian menu plan

    My mantra is meal planning for the week and meal preparation for it in advance. Here is my guide to simple and easy Indian meal plan for a week your family can enjoy together every night for a week and maybe wish to take as lunch the next day.

    Moreover, to make your life simpler, I have added grocery list for simple Indian meal plan ideas. You can buy groceries during the weekend and keep them ready over the weekend. So, I have got you covered for next 5 days of meal plan which is mostly suitable for Indian meals. Now, all that you need to do is just take the pre-prepped food out, mix, cook and there is breakfast, lunch and dinner on the table in 20 minutes -30 Minutes.

    I am also adding a 20 Minutes meals section on the website, so that even if you are not really prepared as per this menu plan you can cook a decent Indian meal in under 20 Minutes. Can it get better than that? Yes, a lot! and I am hoping to make it better one day at a time.

      I am so excited to have found this comprehensive Indian meal plan.

      I literary bought everything on the week1 grocery list.

      However, I am facing a few challenges:

      1. Not all meal plan items have linked recipies.

      2. And not all now things needed in the meal plan recipies are in the grocery list.
      For example, the celery is needed in egg salad sandwich but that is not in the grocery list.

      It would be great to have an all inclusive grocery list so that when we follow your recipes on the weekly plan, things are not missing. Plus an idea on quantity in the grocery list will be an added bonus.

      Also having links to all recipies will really allow to follow the meal plan to the T.

      Thank you for such great and rare work.
