    Hi all

    Lunch today is random salad:

    Some brown rice left over from curry earlier in the week
    Third of a tin of value sweetcorn
    Handfull of value frozen peas
    A hard boiled egg
    Handful of salad leaves

    Also have HM flapjack, yoghurt, apple, clementine and some chopped pineapple/kiwi. Oh and a small tub of nuts.

    Have also brought in pie/mash/beans from leftovers as going out after work tonight.
  • Left over Sausage and Cous Cous from Dinner last Night!! Having Beans on Toast for Dinner tonight as well... going to try for another NSD :)

    Hello All,

    Toast and banana for brekkie today and humous and jacket for lunch with a yoghurt :D

    I have however, got to point where my storecupboard is empty...so its going to be a big shop for me soonish (I'm even out of coffee - noooooo) ;)

    But I'm going to do my best to meal plan (its tough without a freezer :() and will see how I go for the month :D

    Lunch was leftovers from last night's rice dish as planned (which also had acquired a tin of chopped tomatoes into it by the time it made it to the table!:confused:) - delicious! :D

    Dinner this evening was a bit naughty - a sausage plait from the freezer (yellow stickered! :p) and we bought a portion of chips from the chip shop and shared them... Clearly on a health kick this evening, then!:o But the whole meal for the two of us came in at under £2, and its good to have a blow out occasionally - we'll be back on the well-balanced, veggie-laden diet tomorrow!:rotfl:

    On the MSE side, last night's rice dish swelled to humungous proportions so we have enough left for lunch again tomorrow for both of us :T (didn't eat it for dinner this evening as couldn't face it for three meals in a row...:rolleyes:).

    Am going to need to go shopping tomorrow evening, but intend to do a quick freezer/cupboard inventory beforehand and see what can be incorporated into this week's menu plan (bearing in mind that we should, weather permitting, have guests from Saturday until Tuesday :cool:) in order to keep the bill to a minimum. ;)

  • Morning all,

    Piglet that random meal sounds beautiful, hope you enjoyed it! Boring old cheese sarnies for me today, with a cup-a-soup from my drawer. Same again tomorrow I think.

    Yep, same again. Might go for a tomato soup instead of Mushroom though, just for a change! :D

    beans on toast for me today!
  • Lunch will be soup from the canteen - 35p plus a Stoat's Porridge bar from Valvona and Crolla (2 for a pound as opposed to £1.50 most other places!)

    That should see me through to dinner.
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!
  • I can't believe that the Spag Bol I had for tea on Wednesday night, has made Thursdays and Todays lunch.

    Just off now to microwave it. DELICIOUS.

    Had porridge for breckfast... umm.

    Off out for tea tonight to a local curry house, so the'll be no leftovers :p

    But the good news is I'm planning on making sout this weekend so that will be good for lunches next week (I still have some Sweet Potato & Chilli soup left in the freezer - Ummm)
