MEAL PLAN + SHOPPING LIST – WEEK 3
Behold our meal plan for the coming week! We love these meal plans because they not only help you but they help us too. We look into our kitchen cupboards and determine what we are going to cook for the week based on what we have and what our budget can permit us to buy. So friends, here are meals from Monday to Friday. As usual, there is a shopping list at the end to make shopping easier for you!
Monday: Fufu and stir-fry vegetable (njama njama) and chicken (kati kati)
Tuesday: Koki beans (blackeyed peas pudding) and plantain.
Wednesday: Rice and groundnut (peanut) soup.
Thursday: Grilled fish served with Irish potato fries.
Friday: Suya and grilled plantains. This combo is the truth and it’s Friday so you should make something special! Be sure to enjoy this with a chilled glass of juice. It would be a sin not to!
Now the shopping list:
- Corn flour or semolina (for fufu)
- Green leafy vegetable (Njama Njama or Spinach)
- Chicken
- Palm oil
- Tomatoes
- Onions
- Hot pepper
- Garlic

Have the loveliest of weekends!
