A SET of SEVEN VentSmarts for $150.... normally $219!!!
Sizes within pack include: 2x Medium Low, 1x Medium High, 2x Small Low and 2x Small High
I can vouch for the fact that this is a really great deal. When I first brought my set of THREE back in 2012, I paid about $80. So this is definitely a worthwhile investment. This deal is going throughout the month of MAY.
Below is the week one plan. This is without breakfast and some of the snacks. Instead I will write a separate blog offering suggestions. At the bottom of the blog, I have placed the recipes and/or links to them.

Recipes (my apologies, but as I am busy with a full time job and raising a child, I don't physically have the time to type up recipes. I have however found these really yummy recipes which you can use and adapt to the ingredients):
Curried sausage casserole:
I found this recipe for the Casserole by JustJanS on Food.com and it's quite nice. Some people opted out of the apple sauce and chutney and thought it still tasted fine. Obviously use sweet potato instead unless you have brought white potatoes in your shopping list.

Sweet Potato Shepherd's Pie
I have tried this recipe and it's really yummy. You can either adapt to the ingredients you have or buy the ones that aren't on your list - I will leave that up to you. If you're confused, then send a comment and I will get back to you.
