And the holiday is almost over… I leave the US tomorrow to head to Auckland for a few days and then home before the next meal plans post. After the last week of eating out I’m enjoying being back at my sister’s and making some home cooked food. I basically ate anything I wanted in New Orleans and felt more than a little sluggish by the end of it! Worth it though;)

The good thing for me is at that point what I wanted was some green vegetables and a smoothie and that’s exactly what I had yesterday, and I’m already feeling waaaaaay better.

I have loads of exciting recipes to develop when I get home now and I can’t wait to share the results with you all in the next few weeks.

For now meals plans, aka what I’m craving (if you’re new here, Plan A is for omnivores and usually has a mix of seafood, meat and vegetarian whereas plan B is all vegetarian)

Plan A

Day 1: Roasted Capsicum and Cauliflower Panzanella Salad with Parmesan and Mustard Dressing. This delicious salad is made by that punchy dressing.

Day 2: Hummus with Grilled Chicken, Herb and Lemon Salad. Hummus bowl time is in order.

Day 3: Chilli Sesame Crispy Tofu Bun Bowls: bun bowls are one of my favourite dinners and this vegan option is so good.

Day 4: Snapper, Leek and Broccoli Orechiette – this is one of my favourite pastas and has everything I’m craving right now.

Day 5: Lamb, Eggplant and Almond Curry, this curry is easy, comforting and delicious.

Plan B

Day 1: Kale, Broccoli and Lentil Salad with Honey Mustard Dressing. The lentils in this salad make it lovely and filling.

Day 2: Chilli Sesame Crispy Tofu Bun Bowls: fresh and tasty bowls filled with golden tofu.

Day 3: Roast Capsicum and Cauliflower Panzanella Salad with Parmesan and Mustard Dressing. Also a great way to use up leftover bread.

Day 4: Hummus Breakfast Plate – I eat this at any time of the day and top with whatever beg is left in my fridge.

Day 5: Basil, Charred Sweet Corn, Tomato and Buffalo Mozzarella Pasta – summer is basically here right? These are the ingredients I’m hoping to eat when I get back home to SUMMER (Not that Autumn has been in anyway cold in Cali).

This weeks Bonus recipe? The green smoothie I plan on making for breakfast;)
