    Hi PenPin

    We're going out to dinner tonight. For the rest of the week I will be eating salads or home made soups, as I'm trying to shift my tummy. My DH will be living on HM ready meals from the freezer, all of which were the extras made from meals in the last couple of weeks.

    Sun - haven't decided
    Mon - Beef casserole with dumplings
    Tue - Chili Beef and Chilli Chicken Piadines
    Wed - both of us will be having Chicken in a sauce, not HM I'm afraid
    Thu - Mutton Casserole
    Fri - Fish, fresh from the fishmonger, variety tbd
    Sat - Spaghetti bolognese

    Hiya
    I love doing this as i know exactly what i am cooking, what i now need to buy anyway here is ours for the week

    Saturday lentil bake (forgot to take any meat out of freezer last night) had potatoes and chicken pie with it, was very yummy and will become something i cook now
    Sunday roast lamb, jersey potatos and veg
    Monday something with the left over lamb, potoes or rice
    Tuesday sausage potato/sweet poato mash vegtables
    Wednesday pasta a sauce and bacon pieces
    Thursday chicken thighs wedges and mixed veg
    Friday mince with rice (a freezer left over, will be bulked out to make a meal)

    my menu is planned around what i have left so i dont really need to do a shop this week and as its half term shopping with 3 boys on a bus is a nightmare

    breakfasts are shreddies or weetabix and toast
    Lunch soup made from the lamb and then a chicken one on friday, beans on toast or pasta and a sauce(jar)
    puddings if wanted are rice pudding, a crumble or banana custard

    oooo can we come and stay with you this week sophiesmum - your menu sounds lovely :rotfl:

    ok then if we dont get any invites this week we will be having the following...

    Sunday - Roast Chicken with yorkies and veggies
    Monday - Chicken Curry with Rice
    Tuesday - Pasta with Neopolitan Sauce and Garlic Bread
    Wednesday - 5 bean stew with dumplings
    Thursday - Veggie Lasagne with Potato Wedges
    Friday - frozen leftovers
    Saturday - Quorn Chilli Con Carni with Rice

    DD is on rice crispies for breakfast ( finally got her off coco pops :rolleyes: ) I will have either HM bread toasted with honey or porridge and honey.

    Lunches are going to be difficult as we are both all over the place this week but will be trying to use up a glut of tuna in sandwiches and if my rocket grows enough I will be having tuna salad. Will also be making some HM soup to take out in flasks with HM bread.

    Snacks are fruit and will be making some flapjack and shortbread. Im also on the look out for recipies to use up all bran if anybody has any :confused:

    probably not the most nutricious diet this week but am trying to come in under £200 for the month ( budget was £150 but that went out the window ages ago :rolleyes: )

    Have a good week everybody :D
