Sun 26th Chicken jambalaya (angelnikki'srecipe)
Mon 27th LO Chicken jambalaya
Tue 28th [strike]Breaded cod, chips & sweetcorn[/strike] Chicken jambalaya eked out with salmon (made a lot of jambalaya and its loverleeeeeeeeeeeee- don't worry though the first batch was carefully cooled and refridgerated and then subsequent batches removed to be heated so that the chicken and rice is not constantly being heated/cooled)

Thu 30th LO Toad in the hole, lattice tatties & cauliflower cheese
Fri 31th Bratwurst & mushroom & green bean pasta bake with garlic bread

Well done NoahsPennilessMummy on getting your son to eat different sandwiches. My DS1 is ASD too and for the last 9 years he has eaten weetabix and toast for breekie, cheese sandwich for lunch and only now at the grand age of 11 is he prepared to try new foods in the evening. I've had the same advice as you, thats its normal for ASD kiddies to restrict their food to only a few choices.
Ok, enough waffle, here is our list
Fri - HM Pizza and Wedges
Sat - Cauliflower cheese and baked spuds
Sun - Roast chicken dinner with all the trimmings
Mon - HM Curry and HM wedges
Tues - Jacekt spuds and sausage casserole
Wed - spag bol in freezer
Thurs - HM veg soup and HM onion rolls

CaterinaFinally I'm an OAP and can travel free (in London at least!).0 -
Not my best week, I don't think - still relying on the freezer to an extent, and the variety isn't as great as we might wish... Still, it means no spending needed on the evening meals before the end of the month, so I think we can live with that !
Friday - spaghetti bolognaise (freezer) - DD mushroom tortellini
Saturday - keema curry & HM naan - DD poached eggs
Sunday - coq au vin (having guests) - DD will probably be having tea with OH's LO, so the choice is up to them on the day
Monday - tuna bean bake - DD mushroom tortellini
Tuesday - spaghetti bolognaise (freezer) - DD spaghetti with veg
Wednesday - spicy lentil soup (freezer)
Thursday - potato stew
Plus I intend to use a rare free Saturday to do some baking and fill the biscuit tins as DD and OH are home for the half term. Made a start today with Twink's hobnobs.... Yum !0 -
Wooohooo its half term!!! Only my family to feed this week.
Friday Steak, chips, muchrooms and onion rings
Saturday Take away or meal out as we are childless
