Behold our meal plan for the coming week! I love these meal plans because they not only help you but they help me too. I look into my kitchen cupboards and determine what I am going to cook for the week based on what I have and what my budget can permit me 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.

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!
