Low-Faff Bangers Meal Plan 1

Welcome to Low-Faff Bangers Week. These recipes use minimal ingredients, keep the shopping list short, and rely on affordable staples you probably already have in. Perfect for busy weeks, tighter budgets, or when you just can’t be bothered with complicated cooking but still want proper, satisfying dinners. You’ll notice that this week uses some similar ingredients just to keep your budget in mind as well as the recipes being easy to make. Each recipe does list subs, added extras you can add along if your budget allows and if they are meal prep suitable so do have a cheeky read as you may be able to double up some meals. As always I hope you enjoy, and I hope these recipes make January a little easier on your time as well as your wallet. Alex x
