Hi All
Couple of things got changed last week and we sucummed to a takeaway on Monday as I was absolutely shattered (and I'd forgot to get the turkey steaks out of the freezer).
This week we are having:
Thurs: Smoked Haddock & Broccolli fishcakes (were going to be HM, but Aldi won for convenience!)
Fri: 2nd attempt at having Sausage Meatballs with HM Tomato sauce & pasta (after getting chicken fillets instead of sausages out of the freezer last sat - not really much difference!)
Sat: Gammon, pineapple, veg and jacket potato
Sun: Eat at OH's parents
Mon: HM Chilli, wraps and salad
Tues: Fish Pie
Wed: Roast Chicken with all the trimmings.
Have a good week all.
