Had a cook-up after dinner and thought it could be worthy of a post.
Pre-prepped
Upright pasta pie roughly following this recipe https://www.smh.com.au/goodfood/recipes/recipetin-eats-x-good-food-torta-di-rigatoni-upright-pasta-pie-20220815-h25q9q.html
I added béchamel sauce on top because of a combination of cheats lasagne vibes and muscle memory. https://www.recipetineats.com/creamy-pasta-bake/#recipe this is my first time doing this and realised I used the wrong container as I won’t be able to reveal the upright pasta like online recipe images, I’m sure it’ll taste good though. This is not a low fat recipe in any way lol.
We’ll be enjoying this for Monday night dinner. No idea what I’ll create from leftover sauces? Let me know your ideas please.
Then I also prepped some overnight oats and fruit, and crudités (carrot, celery, mini tomato, mini cucumbers) which I’ll snack on with hummus.
I also made a coleslaw (red cabbage, carrot, celery, spring onion) which I’ll sauce up later. I Have some leftover cabbage to invent something from too. Tonight for dinner we had some of this coleslaw (mixed in some mayo and red wine vinegar) in tortilla wraps with oven chicken strips and a sprinkle of cheese for a quick dinner.

This prep is not very organised with set meals and days, but it’s the boost that will help me get through a busy week of work and school pickups etc.

Looks fantastic!
You can use extra bolognese over some baked potatoes with white beans and side of roasted veggies
Extra white sauce do breakfast for dinner and make a version of eggs hollandaise with some salad
Cabbage keeps a long time but makes a great asian style slaw salad with edamame and sesame oil and scallions and shredded carrots, add to a rice bowl with a fried egg and some soy sauce for an easy fast meal
