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.
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
- Ginger
- Maggi (or Bouillon Powder)
- Blackeyed peas (koki beans)
- Plantains
- Rice
- Groundnuts (peanuts)
- Beef (or chicken if preferred) for groundnut soup
- Vegetable oil
- Frozen fish (for grilling)
- Irish potatoes
- Meat (for suya)
- Ripe plantains
