welcome back to my channel today's video
it's actually something I'm really
surprised I haven't done already before
it's a really highly requested video if
for some reason I never had the
confidence just sit here and do it but
then I was talking to Lawrence yesterday
do you know what we've got our food
bills down so low and we need to really
full healthy nutritious great diet and
we managed to do it on such a budget
that I really I actually want to share
that with you guys wow that was a long
intro just to tell you today's video is
my what I eat in a week for dinners meal
plan and to sit and meal plan with you
guys I'm going to literally count the
pennies and tell you how much I will
spend this week from Monday to Friday
for all of mine and Lawrence's dinners
so feel absolutely free to grab a pen
and paper either copy exactly what I do
or take bits away from what I do and
give it a little Judaism to make it into
your own type of meal plan could
probably do this quite regularly just
because I change I eat all of the time
depending on my mood depending on the
season depending on the time of month so
that is something I can be regulate but
I think I'm going to make this into a
little series and I'm going to show you
what I eat for my lunches how i budget
down for my snacks how I budget down for
my breakfast and then make sure you are
subscribed because next week I will be
uploading the video where I'm showing
you what I eat in a week dinner so that
would be a more how to do dinners way
let's go what you're going to need is a
good pen a cup of tea I've gone for a
lemon and green tea today because I was
films it's taped it needs some kind of
weekly planner so this weekly planner I
have I think it was from Poundland and I
really like it so without further ado I
feel like we should just get straight
into it give the video a thumbs up if
you are excited let's go okay this week
I've decided on Monday I'm going to make
my slow cook chicken dinner just to note
by the way if you're new to the channel
you won't know this but I am a semi
terian or flexitarian as we like to call
it where I basically eats as a
vegetarian or vegan most of my time
occasion
the max once a week I will buy meat or
fish and eat meat or Fitness meal plan
it's going to have vegan vegetarian and
a meat-based dinner's gonna cover
everything but I will always give like
vegan vegetarian alternatives by the way
have a smoke okay I'm going to link
everything I use by the way and show you
in today's video down below I need two
large chicken breasts which I buy from
Aldi
from Audi to pound 70 by the way there's
going to be a theme here and the theme
is I do pretty much all of my food shop
from Aldi because you save a lot of
money and you're going to need either
actual barbecue sauce at the moment we
have a Tesco own barbecue sauce which
was 79 P or you can make your own
barbecue sauce using ingredients from
your cupboard so in your coverage you
will need worcester sauce some kind of
acidity vinegar lemons things like that
some honey a bit of sugar and that's
generally it but for ease we will put
you can actually get Tesco's own
barbecue sauce which is quite nice it's
the one I currently have which was 79 P
and use about a fifth of that 10 P worth
of barbecue sauce one large white onion
Aldi and it's a very large one it is 25
P we currently get these seeded reps
from Audi and the two reps each it's
going to be 40 P in total needs some
salad so rocket we use about 24 Peas
worth about half about and then we will
need brown rice as we kind of turn these
into like little burritos so the portion
out of a bag of brown rice from Audi is
going to be 5p per person salad another
20 P per person this entire meal per
person cost us one pound ninety seven so
we have two wraps each it's full of rice
brown rice which is also a nice
satisfying filler and then it's got tons
of salad so what I tend to do with salad
just so I'm kind of getting vitamins
from all over the place I just get
colors something green something red
purple any different colors I try to
incorporate into these wraps now in
terms of the pulled chicken we do tend
to have this instead with some vegan no
chick chicken and this such he from
Iceland and we fry it up instead of put
it in the slow cooker so you can swap
this out for a bag and it costs two
pounds from Iceland you can stick to
this basics or you can also look into
your cupboards for anything that might
flavor the food a little bit more so
garlic garlic granules
they've olive oil some heard some mixed
herbs it's completely up to you so
Monday's dinner one pound 97 per person
okay
Tuesday dinner is leftovers plus a
little bit extra we will have enough
chicken left over to have one more wrap
each one more salad burrito wrap each
cost of chicken has already been
incorporated on Monday so left over
chicken not P we don't need to
incorporate the sauces because we've
already made it we're just literally
using leftover don't need to incorporate
the onion so we need to incorporate some
salad another 20 P per person so you can
do whatever salad you like we tend I
will show you in next week's video what
salad I tend to go for brown rice 5 P
per person now because we've only got
enough chicken to make one wrap again
each we could just leave it at that but
you can also jazz it up with your home
made of fries so I mentioned in one of
my Food Rules recently that I make
homemade fries now so I will link my fry
cutter down below I do not buy chips
from the shop anymore I don't buy frozen
chips it saved me so much money it's
also much better for the planet because
I'm not buying chips and plastic and
plastic bag type things I just buy loose
potatoes so much cheaper cut them with
my cheap cutter throwing them in the
oven with some salt and a bit of oil and
whatever else if I want to herb it up I
can if I'd say I'd say we use about
three large potatoes for chips for both
of us if three large potatoes lose
potatoes comes to about 30 P
nor point to + naught point naught 5 +
call it 40 P so Tuesday's mill has
technically cost us 40 p on Wednesdays
we normally go swimming though when clay
has a really quick type meal but it also
has to be quite filling because
obviously swimming is a lot of cardio so
Wednesday it always changes but it will
be either a jacket potato beans on toast
with a bit of cheese or something likes
soup so this Wednesday I think we're
going to have some soup and toast we
tend to have a tin eat just because we
would rather have a little bit too much
then - laughs - little pet goes cream of
tomato see if you have watched my eating
Tesco food for 24 hours you will know
that Tesco cream of tomato soup
completely outweighs any other cream of
tomato soup it's the best one ever
and it's only blooming 45 P per can it's
cheaper and it's nicer shop smart guys
shop smart
and then we will have two slices of
bread each we have the multi seeded
multigrain any kind of brown bread or
multi seeded bread and it's normally
from Aldi so it cuts about ten P per two
slices of bread not point five five P so
as you can see we are doing very well
per person this is how much you spent
okay this week's Thursday's dinner we
are doing our vegan meatballs and
spaghetti it will break down the cost
and then obviously next week's video you
will see how you can probably make this
[Music]
for Thursday's vegan meatballs and
spaghetti you'll need one tin of herby
tomatoes from Aldi which is 26 P pert in
there amazing and then achievers I've
found so far and they taste just like
the brand of one so get them then you
will need one large onion which dobbsy
25p you need about 20 Peas worth of
spaghetti so if you buy asperity from
Aldi that's about third you need about
20 Peas worth of spaghetti which around
a third of the Aldi spaghetti and then
you need one bag of vegan meatballs
we are currently eating the Iceland
vegan meatballs which are two pound per
bag in total this dinner per person one
pound
forty-five two pound 71 for both of us
divided by 2 equals 1 pound 35 for each
person now we're moving on to Friday so
for my in my opinion I really feel like
food should be enjoyed and restrict
yourself especially at the weekend you
should be able to just eat whatever
whenever now I have perfected an amazing
vegan kabob no flippin love it with
we've started to have that on a Friday
every other kind of Friday and then
every other Friday we might get either a
takeaway or a supermarket style take
away so the Tesco peeps the meal deal
things like that but this Friday we're
going to be having our vegan kebabs so I
will talk you through that now Friday
vegan Kerber one tub of the era big
Greek kebab at the moment the cheapest
place I found this is Waitrose for two
pound 59 they will need some pizza bread
I always get the pizza beds from Aldi
and we have one each
two times pizza that is north point two
eight P for two bits of bread then we're
gonna do our little homemade chips again
using some the leftover potatoes
I will show you how to actually make
this kebab and how I make the vegan
kebab meat in my video next week which
is my weekly Mills
essentially you'll need and the kebab
the pizza bread potatoes and then mouldy
salad whatever moldy salad you have
leftover in your bridge can go into
these kebabs trust me it's a game
changer it's the way to eat all your
moldy salads and I really enjoy it again
sources to be confirmed because you
might not want sauce with this Lawrence
and I have sources so you can have like
her vegan garlic mayo to keep it nice
and vegan vegans kurata which are
actually found in Aldi or you can have a
normal garlic mayo
one house 78 give or take if you want to
add some sources some extra herb spice
this stuff that's already in your fridge
or cupboard so in a second I'm going to
calculate the total we spend an entire
week for our meals and but for now this
is exactly what we will eat this sweet
it's delicious it's also satisfying
they're really easy meals they're really
cheap meals at the weekends we tend to
make meals that are a bit more complex
experiment with our cooking but during
the week when you're busy you've got
stuff on you're doing stuff you want to
eat healthily on a budget but also quick
it's really valuable information so
please share the video if you want other
people tena fit from it anyway let's add
up a total per person for the week
six pounds and five P so this is a meal
plan that will give you a total of six
pounds and 5p for all of your dinners
for Monday through to Friday per person
this is a bit of a luxury food plan I
can actually do one where I can spend
like two pounds per person for an entire
week but it's a lot less luxury and
there we have it my super duper cheap
easy yet delicious meal plan obviously
this week I'm going to be filming me
making slash eating all of the dinners
which will be live next week that can
show you how I make everything I really
hope you enjoyed please don't forget to
share this on your social medias it will
make me really happy tag me in it when
you share I will be sure to send you a
message saying how much I love you and
saying thank you because it really helps
my channel when you're sharing my videos
I really hope you enjoyed I hope this
was helpful where I'm really dreaming I
will see you guys again that's very very
soon
