    Weekly meal plan with dinner, lunch and breakfast recipes for a week. In this menu I am sharing day wise weekly Indian Meal plan for busy people and moms. This meal pan comes with recipes, grocery list for these recipes and meal prep tips do that you can make dinner under 30 minute.

     

    With most of us juggling with Work from home, kids home schooling and this pandemic. Putting home cooked meals for each meal time is even more challenging.

    I don't know about you but I was always a women who preferred to order out once or twice per week. It used to provide me a much needed break. But now to make life easier and make meal times simpler I have started planning for all three meals. And this includes batch cooking as well as using leftovers in some other meal.  

    So this is menu plan for all three meals which are doable, especially for those who have a very busy schedule.

    For this I order my groceries online and spend 2 hours for meal prep and menu planning. This makes 30 minutes meal easier and doable.

    Do you know that I have 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 delicious 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.
