Weekly meal plans might not be as exciting for some people as for others, so I decided to make themed meal plans. Featured in this blog post is my Taste of Asia Meal Plan.
The recipes featured are inspired by asian meals, but aren’t necessarily true asian cuisine. If you have suggestions of others meals we should try, please let us know in the comments!

Shopping Local
After we’ve finished our grocery list, we like to try to shop local. We typically get our produce from Tomato Fruits and our bulk items from Bulk Barn. The specialty items on this list, such as Nori, are purchased from the Oriental Market on Main Street. There are numerous other great local stores to buy your groceries, such as Rinzler’s Market, the Moncton Farmer’s Market, Corn Crib Natural Foods, Sequoia Downtown, Co Pain Bakery, Nanna’s Bakery, and many more.
