I'm putting some lighter choices in as I'm hoping that the weather keeps getting warmer :rolleyes: Sausages are in twice as I bought some together and I'm trying to run the freezer down.

Happy cooking folks!

Hello there - my meal plan for today went out of the window already as we went to visit our elderly neighbours earlier today, who persuaded us to stay for the ever-so-French 'omelette and a glass of wine'. Not to mention the frites, salad, cheese course and dessert...... So I guess we'll have grilled steaks for lunch tomorrow :-). Otherwise the plan reads as follows:

Sat - tonno i faglioli (tuna & white bean salad)
Sun - venison biriyani (with frozen leftover venison roast)
Mon - baked trout (stuffed with Boursin cheese) HM wedges, salad
Tues - tian Nicoise
Wed - coconut chicken with HM naan bread (experiment)
Thur - spinach/broccoli enchiladas
Fri - spicy beef casserole with couscous
Sat - copious lunch out with the beekeepers association
Sun - on our way to the UK in the camper van

Wishing everyone an excellent week!
