What's on the menu this week?

Hi Emma, 

Monday is cook up day here. My sister Joye comes to work with me in the kitchen so I have meals in the freezer for a busy week ahead. Here's what my menu looks like this week - you'll find recipe links below. 

Also, I've included a few snack ideas for the kids under the menu plan recipes. I'm not snacking much these days (I'm intermittent fasting atm) so I don't have many snacks on my menu. But I remember what it was like trying to keep hungry kids fed, especially if you have them at home with you all day... so hopefully these ideas will be helpful.!

Have a great week,

Jo xx
