I didn't realise how much I needed your channel until I came across it!!! Love seeing a fellow Aussie, full time working mum. And I love that you are helping others!! We have two of your meals on the menu this week :)
Just discovered your channel. I am in my 70’s and retired and would have loved these ideas when I was working full time. Mind you your ideas are relevant to me today as I am caring for my husband who has dementia at home. Thank you and you have my admiration for your energy and ideas.
Instagram suggested one of your posts for me, and I sat there in awe. I was in complete disbelief that you could do all that in "a couple of hours." You told a commenter you had uploaded a video on RUclips, so here I am. Still in utter amazement at your skills and at that fantastic range of yours. 🙂 Thank you for sharing.
I began doing meal prep this weekend, and as I have to split it over 3 days due to health reasons, I just want to say how much of an absolute life changer it is, no more 2 minute noodles at 1am and no more hanging around the fridge waiting for food to magically appear! Thanks again!
Best wishes for you and your channel’s success. Great to see Australian content. It’s admirable to see the work you put in to make a better life for your family. My days as a working Mum are behind me as my daughter is now an adult but the grocery/meal strategies can be used by anyone. Especially using everything up and buying what you planned to need - saves money and uses the earth’s resources wisely. 🙂🌸
I started binge watching your videos a few months ago. And since then, I have followed your ‘ Sunday reset ‘ preparing lunches / snacks for the week & what a difference it has made for me through the week to get my husband & kids ready for work & school for the week! I used to do this every afternoon & doing it on a Sunday for 3/4 hours is so much more practical! Thank you for the video! Can’t wait to watch! 🤍
I love your channel, its so soothing and I love the recipes. I must say I have never washed my fruit and vegetables like that, so that's new for me at the ripe old age of 59!
I’ve been wanting to follow more Aussie mums so this video popped up at the perfect time! Now to go back and watch the rest of your videos. Love your work! Especially that you can film at the same time. We love a Sunday reset too. The satisfaction of a deeep fridge clean and prep is like no other 😆💛
I absolutely love these videos - always inspired. I really want to do this more, struggle with freezer space to store prepared meals though 😢 Your meals always look amazing!
Just found your videos and have watched them all! So inspiring and your meals look delicious. I’m going to try doing this on Sunday. Already made the jelly/yoghurt. Please keep doing these videos. PS planning an ikea trip on the weekend too
Im doing my weekly reset athough im not as quick as you. My oven is also tiny! Spinach dip chicken and rice. Bake bbq chicken w broccoli pineapple salad and breakfast burritos and 1 more dinner i havent got to yet
I load up my online shopping order on Sunday and then process it on Wednesday for Friday pick up. Friday night roast night or something easy and then can cook over both the weekend days doing bits and pieces. We don’t get mark down sales where I live so no point trawling around inside the store. I’m thinking I might join the Woolworths club to save 10%. Thanks for all the inspo !
Sounds great! I love finding what works for you and your Family! So important 💕 I have woolworths extra and save 10% each month. I try to aim for that one to be my bigger shop so I save more 🩷
Would love to see how you go about organising kids lunches? Do you do them the night before? Also what do you do for snacks after school or after dinner? Feels like my kids are bottomless pits, always looking for the next thing to eat.
We normally pack their lunches the night before because my husband leaves at 4:30am and I am generally out of the house with the kids between 7-7:30 so easier for us. I post some of their lunches on my insta stories and on highlights. But need to post more as I get asked often for some more inspiration 💕 We also live about 25mins away from their school so I actually overpack their lunches or an extra snack box that they eat on the way home because as you said my kids too are bottomless pits 😂 They have fruit after school, a sandwich if they are really hungry. But we generally eat dinner around 5:30/6 latest as they are starving haha Hope that helps 💕
Just found your channel and I’m loving the inspiration. I’d love to know where you got the large chopping boards you put over your stove. We have no bench space and this would help so much xx Never mind just went through your backlist and found where you got them from lol
Ohhh I’ve just come across your RUclips channel after following you on TikTok and Instagram. You truly are amazing! I wish I had have dogs this when my kids were little and working full time. That said, you inspire me be more like you. I feel like I’ve accomplished something cooking one meal for the week but you are incredible! Thank you for sharing ❤
Hey Monique - love love love your work!!! Would you ever consider some sort of cook along with me where you share the menu for the week plus ingredients list & recipes (paid of course your time & effort is valuable!!!) I would 100% be your first customer 😂
Hi I am printing off the recipes as I’m watching. There doesn’t seem to be a recipe for the lemongrass noodle salad. You mention the ingredients for the marinade but didn’t mention what you out in the sauce you pre prepared. Would be great as I wrote down the marinade.
I’d love to know how long and what temp you air fry the chicken souvlaki for..? I’m still a bit iffy about meat in the air fryer but you’re giving me inspiration 😂
Thanks for sharing I would like to see how U conserve them in the fridge I think it's the most important part + I saw eags: will U put them on the fridge too I heard that it can be toxic
Absolutely love your content, Monique! So encouraging to see another average Aussie mum! An unrelated question about the age gaps of your kids! Hubby and I are considering a potential 18-20 month gap between kids 2&3. Mostly to be able to finish off the pregnancy years and then get our health insurance gone! The age gap between our 1&2 is 2years and 4 months. Did you find the smaller gap between the last two to be overwhelming for a time, and then easier at they got older? Would you recommend?
Thank you! 💕 I have 22 months between my first and second and 16 months between my second and third. It’s crazy busy but wouldn’t have it any other way. They have such a special bond. It’s all I know too so we make it work. I liked that we were still in the phase when the next came so that there wasn’t a lot of adjustment to go back to new born life after many years off. We loveee our crazy little household 😂
Awesome content but can I ask why you put soap on your veggies? Just seems like more chemicals you’re eating. Or is it some sort of special fruit cleaner that foams that’s not a chemical??
i added up everything in your cart if the price was here in Canada and that all cost $150 more then $330.. tell me about luxury items :( every thing is a luxury these days
I’ve just come across your videos and new subscriber. Going to have to try and be more organised but don’t have a big fridge like yours. I have used nutrimetics OLC to wash fruit, it was designed for this. I’ve been out for awhile need to order some. We thought my daughter was allergic to strawberries even took a strawberry to the children’s hospital when she was tested. Nope this didn’t come up. She ate one we grew no worries. Organic shop said strawberries are the most sprayed fruit. Washing them in the OLC no reaction. So always wash your strawberries and other veggies but not for too long. Grapes too have lots of sulphites on them. Scary what we eat if we don’t wash them. Will try and be organised ❤
When i feel tired and sad i just wach you i dont know it gives me so much joy
I love how all three kids magically appear when the white chocolate comes out 😂
Hahahah everytime!!!! And they stole a couple too 😂
The idea of cooking IN the individual glass containers is so smart! Definitely trying that.
Been a game changer!
How do you stop them from shattering?

Sunday reset I didn’t know I needed in my life. From one Aussie mumma to another. Thank you so much. 😊
Thank you! 💕🇦🇺
Would love to see your kids lunch boxes and u putting them together. Really enjoying your content and using your ideas to help us and our family!
Wow, I’m in awe that you can cook all that in 2.5 hours!! Well done and thank you. This is so inspiring!

Love these videos, so many great ideas ❤ what a lucky family you have having someone care for them like this. Superwoman x
I love your oven!
I wish the standard Australian oven was that size.
I love your channel, its so soothing and I love the recipes. I must say I have never washed my fruit and vegetables like that, so that's new for me at the ripe old age of 59!
Loved it! It gives me hope to get it done to my family too ❤
I was so excited to see this! You provide so much motivation for me! Love it!
I can’t stop watching these! I really struggle getting distracted by the kids so want to try harder!
Little by little! And thank you 💕💕

First time mum here and I enjoy your videos as it relieves me from overwhelming feelings of being a mum.
A couple of hours! You are one speedy mumma (and an Aussie, best of all)
Thank you!! 💕💕 Been doing it for a long time so got my system working.
I just had to follow you here on RUclips from Tiktok. It's inspiring how organized you are!
Just found your videos and have watched them all! So inspiring and your meals look delicious. I’m going to try doing this on Sunday. Already made the jelly/yoghurt. Please keep doing these videos.

Thank you! 💕
These videos are fantastic - thank you for the inspiration. ❤ from Scotland
Oh way hello from Australia to Scotland! And thank you 💕
👍
I watch a lot of this type of videos and it’s so wholesome to see there’s no frozen pizza or ‚sixty’ flavours of Doritos in your weekly shopping
Hi 👋 first time watching your video very clever meal prep! I am going try it next time!
Absolutely love your content ❤
Thank you! 🥰

You’re the Aussie Jen Chapin❤
💕💕
How do you organize the meal plan for the week? I end up only cooking 2 or 3 dishes and repeating it 😅
Can you cook the Chicken Fajitas in one big casserole dish with same measurements, cooking temp and time in oven?
Hi Monique, could you please let me know where your glass containers are from (the ones you used for the apple crumble)
Thanks 😬
Thanks for sharing
I would like to see how U conserve them in the fridge
I think it's the most important part
+ I saw eags: will U put them on the fridge too I heard that it can be toxic
Thank you 💕 I’ve kept eggs in the fridge and pantry overtime and had no issues 😊
cant wait to get married so i can do this
May I please have your overnight oats recipe please?
Yaaaayy love these!!! Thanks Monique! You’re such an inspiration ❤ I’d love to know which vlogging camera you use? It’s soooo sharp!!! ☺️
Thank you!!! It’s the sony zv-mark 2 💕💕

Great reset as always! Do you use a timer / multiple timers? I’m terrible at judging time, and tend to get interrupted when I’m in the kitchen
Awesome content but can I ask why you put soap on your veggies? Just seems like more chemicals you’re eating. Or is it some sort of special fruit cleaner that foams that’s not a chemical??
Thank you. Yes it’s a natural fruit and veg wash from a brand called koala eco. Not a soap/chemical base 😊
I always forget australia is hours ahead of us in SA, I was confused as how you got things done so early lol
Do you mean South Africa? We have a SA state in Australia but I’m assuming you mean South Africa. 💕
@@Theorganisedeverydaymum Yes its south africa sorry😂
i added up everything in your cart if the price was here in Canada and that all cost $150 more then $330.. tell me about luxury items :( every thing is a luxury these days
Love your chopping boards, where are they from?
They are from ikea 🩷
what a weapon
I had no idea you could cook rice in the oven with other ingredients.
It’s so good! Easy and quick 💕
What camera do you use to film? The quality is amazing x
Was that your dog outside the window? Right before the time 13?
Where are your chopping boards from?
They’re IKEA chopping boards
How long did that take?
Hi there, loving your videos 😃 What fruit and vege wash do you use? Thank you for your inspo 😊
I'm only answering as I use the same one, it's called Koala Eco Natural Fruit & Vege Wash 👍
Yes exactly right 💕 koala eco fruit and veg wash. And thank you!
