Things went a little pear-shaped this week, and I discovered that I really dropped the ball somewhere along the line. There are two things I rely on to put dinner on the table when life doesn't go to plan; a well stocked freezer and a well stocked pantry. Apparently I have been busy taking meals out of the freezer over the past few months, yet have neglected to restock it. Which meant I had to rely on the store-cupboard for a few emergency meals. Thank goodness for pasta.
The upside was the fantastic slow cooker pork dish I discovered. It was very quick to put together, and only required some simple sides to turn it into a full meal. We all loved it, and it won't be the last time I make that dish.
There is a wealth of quick healthy meals on both the spring and autumn menu this week. My fellow bloggers have some easy one pot meals, loaded with vegetables, and some great healthy breakfasts. So without further ado:
Spring Meal Plan
A Little Something Extra
Mini Quinoa Frittatas via Suburban Simplicity

Bon Appetit!
