Some of you may have read my last newsletter about Summer Prep or watched the video on YouTube, I am all about reducing cooking time in the summer. For this meal plan, I would like us to prep what we can in one day; so that cooking time can be significantly reduced later on in the week. Happy Summer!
All the recipes and steps are in separate printable documents with links to video recipes, which are only available to paid subscribers. Become a paid subscriber to support me. Scroll to the bottom for these.
Day 1
Dinner: Beef & Mushrooms + Wakame Seaweed Salad
Day 2
Lunch: Leftovers
Reheat and enjoy.
Dinner: Grilled Mackerel + Miso Soup + Salad
I love mackerel, it’s easy to cook and full of omega 3 and good proteins.
Day 3
Lunch: Beans on Toast
1000% more delicious than how it sounds
Dinner: Chicken & Potatoes + String Beans Salads
This chicken dinner reminds me of my boarding school days, where we could get those long-stewed chicken legs that had fallen off the bones and were extremely flavourful.
Day 4
Lunch: Leftovers
Dinner: Mapo Tofu + Tomato Salads
It’s not authentic. Yes, I said it. But it is delicious and easy, which is much more important!
Day 5:
Lunch: Leftovers
Dinner: Steamed Fish + Cabbage & Bacon Saute
Steamed fish is probably the easiest way to cook a fish, and it almost always produces moist results. I had been scared to share this until now, however, fearing that it is too much an acquired Chinese taste. But do let me know, what you really thought of this.
