Easy Mid-Week Suppers for the Whole Family

Minimal Waste Shopping List

A note on shopping: you’ll find the cupboard staples are the same across almost all of our recipes. We’re passionate about making cooking easy and never want you to buy ingredients that you’ll only use once.

Most of the recipes can be relatively flexible, so if you don’t like an ingredient or don’t want to buy something, feel free to swap it for something similar, e.g. strawberries for raspberries or asparagus for Tenderstem broccoli.

Don’t forget that the meal plan is designed to make a plant-based diet fun and easy, so don’t stress about sticking to it 100% of the time.
