I missed the last week's thread, but it wasn't for lack of meal planning, just for lack of access time... This week I will be relying heavily on my freezer, as I'm working three evenings in a row, plus the weekend, which leaves me just about... erm, no time for cooking and preparation of food.
Anyway, enough waffle, here's the plan:
Friday - turkey chilli (freezer); HM naan (freezer ); southern fried quorn burger and beans for DD
Saturday - beef jalfrezi (freezer); HM naan (freezer); fried eggs and beans for DD
Sunday - toad in the hole (made with a veggie hot dog for DD), roasties and veg
Monday - pub meal out with friends
Tuesday - spaghetti bolognaise (freezer); spaghetti with veg for DD
Wednesday - saag chana dhal (freezer); HM naan (freezer)
Thursday - shepherdess pie

Hi everyone - don't know what happened last week but I couldn't find your thread! I was bereft! And I wanted to share my three week plan
!! Never mind, here we go for this week - we're away next Friday for half term so a short week for me - hurrah as I'll be catered for most of the week - a blissful break. Now the good news was that I got a 2kg chook from Iceland last week for £2.50 - but hte kids got a bit fed up with chicken meals especially as my firend also served chicken when we stayed last weekend :rolleyes: so this week we will have to finish up the leftovers from the freezer so:
Friday - sandwich meal - kids out at 5pm
Saturday - spag bol, garlic bread
Sunday - roast - depends on butcher
Monday - chicken sweet n sour and rice
Tuesday - Sausage plait
Wednesday - rabbit casserole - new dish request by 11yo son!! Not sure iff DD will be ok with eating a bunny!!!
Thursday - Pasta Bake - bit radical in our house they don't really like messed up food so we'll see!
Have a good week - will post again after half term!:DSealed Pot 617 - target £150 only managed £27 in 2009!0 -
Just looking at my meal plans.
Is it just me or is anyone else finding that meal planning is saving sooooo much money and time ?
I often adjust my plan, and say 'no that can stay in the freezer cos tonight we can have leftover from the day before!'. If I follow a recipe that says 'for 4' I often half it, yet I am finding it feeds 2 (plus ickle DS) over 2 days- so still 4!!! I am not complaining about altering the plans- its great, just wondering why my food is seeming to stretch so much these days. I throw very little away and love turing one meal into something else next time!
