Right back on the bandwagon, hacked off at Barclaycard adding interest of 24.9% interest onto outstanding balance of £4388.09 of credit card:mad: so need to do a big push in counting and saving pennies - so have audited freezer and found enough meals for nearly 3 weeks:eek: , so here is the meal plan I have made. Usually spend up to £450 a month on groceries:eek: :eek: , I know, I know, spending diary is helping now;) , so my plan is to pay off 10% of the credit card £438 :eek: out of my grocery money this month. Putting this in black and white is my incentive to do this, long post over, here is my meal plan.

Ten days into daughter not eating meat/fish, and the rest of us are barely eating any either, it's so much easier to all eat the same food and we're enjoying the veg meals anyway (oh and myself have been vegetarian at various times and are don't find meatless eating daunting). There are a number of egg dishes this week because I find myself with 17 eggs ...

This week it looks like one meat meal and the rest veg.

Sat: spare ribs using the rest of my levi roots sauce, vegetarian nasi goreng & a fried egg or omelette for dd

Sun: Vegetable goulash & cheesy dumplings, and on the side, red cabbage cooked slowly with apples (will freeze spare goulash and cabbage)

Mon: Vegetarian bolognese, using lentils and possibly mushrooms, can't remember if I ordered any

Tues: Broccoli flan made with hm cheesy wholemeal pastry, tomato salad

Wed: Risotto with brown rice, veg, kidney beans & cashew nuts

Thurs: Courgette & potato pancakes, fried egg

Fri: Felafel (from a packet, cos Friday's my bad day at work), pitta bread, salad & yoghurt

Hello everyone

Completely inspired by this thread (and GC, Storecupboard, etc) I decided last week to meal plan for the very first time. It worked!:T Not only did it work, we were able to scrounge a couple of lunches out of leftovers also. I found it so much less hassle deciding beforehand what we're having. Working full time and DH shiftwork makes it tough sometimes. Am going to try to double my success so here's this coming week's:

Sat - Pizza & chips (HM or freezer)
Sun - Pork & Crackling (freezer) mini sausage in bacon (freezer), potatoes
Mon - Spag Carbonara and HM garlic bread (got everything for this too:D )
Tues - Tuna pasta bake (leftovers for 2 x lunch DS and me)
Wed - Beef casserole (HM in freezer)
Thurs - Baked potatoes & tuna (leftovers for me)
Friday - Fish & chips (freezer)

So, all in all I hope for a pretty cheap week.

In again this week

Fri - Homemade fishcakes, brocolli & peas

Sat - Roast beef & yorkshire pud - (OH is working a late shift tomorrow)

Sun - Spaghetti Bolognese - fresh bread

Mon - Home made vegetable soup (has lentils & split peas, it's like a meal) bread

Tues - Low fat sausages in onion gravy, mash, brocolli, carrots & peas

Wed - Chilli & Rice

Thurs - creamy chicken bake, + salad

breakfast, prorridge + dried fruit or toast

lunches, sandwiches, soup, yoghurts,

I tried making flatbread last week - turned out like focaccia - not the wrap type bread I was expecting, even so it was delicious. Will have it with the spag bol.

Will try again for a wrap type bread this week.
