March 2019 Meal Plan!

Hey everyone!

If February was anything to go by, March is going to be a VERY busy month for us!
This month I am planning on quite a few freezer meals, simple Thermomix recipes and loads of veggie packed dinners.
Saving money is our goal this month, so I am starting March off with a freezer and pantry challenge.

I have looked through my pantry and both of my freezers, and here are the list of meals I can make with what I have already!

  • Chicken Pie (4 Ingredients One Pot One Bowl)
  • Pies and veggies (a staple in our house)
  • Savoury mince (another staple)
  • Noodle pancakes, fish fingers and veg
  • Golden Curry Sausages
Other meals we will be making this month include:
  • Spag Bol
  • Honey Soy Chicken drumsticks and veggies
  • Hot Dogs
  • Homemade Pizza
  • Scrambled Eggs with Fish and salad (weird combo I know but it's what works to get the kids eating)
  • Macaroni Bake with veg (4 Ingredients One Pot One Bowl)
  • Roast Beef Lasagna (4 Ingredients One Pot One Bowl)
  • Taco Bake (Large Family Table)
  • Chicken Teriyaki Fried Rice (The Road To Loving My Thermomix)
  • Meatloaf and Veg
  • Beef Stroganoff (Large Family Table)
  • Fish, Chips and Eggs
  • Chicken Tenders and Salad in Pita Pockets
Snacks for the month will include:

  • Pikelets
  • Yoghurt
  • Cheese and Bacon muffins
  • Banana Choc Chip muffins
  • Loads of fresh fruit
  • Cheese sticks
  • Savoury Muffins
  • Choc Slice (Coconut, Honey, Oats, Choc chips)
  • Banana Bread
I have changed up the way we meal plan, because of the fact that I am out of the house so much at this point. Having a list of meals ready, I am able to choose what I am able to make that day. For example, on a day Miss8 has gymnastics, I can make savoury mince during the day and have it cooking on low for a few hours while I am out of the house (there are still adults here, so don't worry!). Having a whole heap of snacks made and in the freezer helps with kids wondering what they can put in their lunch box.

Thanks for reading!

Organising School Uniforms

Hey Guys! When it comes to storing and sorting the kid's school uniforms, it seems we have FINALLY found what works for us! For those who don't know, we have 4 kiddos and my mum works at the kid's school as well, so her uniforms are also stored with the kid's uniforms.  Right next to my desk in the kid's playroom (pretty much only has Lego in it at the moment) we have a clothes rack. The only things that get put on the rack is school uniforms, shoes, the hair box (this keeps all the brushes, hair ties, head bands, etc. together in one place) and school socks.  So here is an overview of what the uniform rack looks like and then I will talk about the sections. We'll talk about hanging the uniforms first! Each person has their own colour coat hanger to make it easier for them to recognise which uniforms are theirs.  BB has pink. Knox has blue. TJ has purple. Liss has white.  Mum has black.  Yes, they are all mixed up at ...

June Favourites!

Hey Everyone! There has been a few things I got in June that really get a lot of use and I am really happy with, so I thought I would share! Okay, the first thing I have LOVED is a book called The Essential Life.  For those of you who are not familiar with essential oils, this is basically the essential oil bible. There are 6 sections in this book that go through an intro to oils, various ailments and which oils to use for each, what each essential oil is good for, focus areas such as children, nervous system, etc. This book also has recipes, DIY's and blends to make for gardening, pregnancy etc. I have used this book so much this last month, it now lives in the lounge room! Second item is a doTerra essential oil blend called Peace. For those of you that know me, I get very anxious in certain situations, so when I ordered the Peace essential oil and started diffusing it, I ordered the Peace Touch (it is the same oil, just in a roller bottle and diluted with Frac...

My New Toy!

Hey Everyone! A couple of months ago, my thermomix started to not work very well (so not happy about this). I talked to the Thermomix Customer Service who said to send it in for a service and to get checked. I use my thermomix all the time, so if I was without one for so many days or weeks, I would definately feel it.  So we talked about it, prayed about it, and decided it was time for a new TM6! And.... I am still getting used to the new format in the TM6, but so far it has been AMAZING! As of Sunday night, I have made a couple of things apart from the delicious veggie stock paste the lovely consultant made with me at the time of delivery. As always, the thermomix custard is the easiest and most delicious custard recipe ever, as well as the basic muffin recipe on the guided cooking platform Cookidoo. The muffins were choc chip (having a special needs child in the house, foods can feel repetitive but neccessary at times), and the recipe said it would ma...
