Joyful Cook's 6-Month Family Meal Plan

The hardest part of cooking isn’t always the cooking, it’s deciding what to cook.

If you’re tired of the daily “What are we eating today?” question, this meal plan is for you.

Created by Ngozi, the mum of three behind Joyful Cook, this digital guide takes the guesswork out of feeding your family. Enjoy six months of planned breakfasts, lunches and dinners, featuring Nigerian favourites and everyday meals your family will look forward to.

The approach is simple: prepare your soups, stews, sauces and proteins on Sunday, then pair them with different sides throughout the week. Serve Efo Riro with semo one day and rice another—keeping meals varied without starting from scratch every time.

What’s inside

• 26 weeks of meal plans covering breakfast, lunch and dinner.

No rigid rules. Swap days, change proteins and use what’s already in your kitchen. This plan is here to carry the load—not add to it.
