THU- Grilled Fresh Haddock Fillet / Garden Salad / Roll

I've stopped specifying "what" veggies as I always end up using whatever needs to be used first!

I've been trying to plan mine today, but struggled a bit, so i'll try and stick to it as much as I can.

Edit - changing this slightly as ended up at a farm shop yesterday and my dad bought me some bits and bobs that will need using Won't make a huge difference as most of the original stuff is in the freezer

Saturday - leftover pasta bake from tonight

Sunday - my dad's taking me out for lunch, so no idea - had roast beef etc followed by banana cake at my grandma's


Monday - fish in parsley sauce with new potatoes + corn on the cob

Tuesday - [STRIKE]stuffing and lentil burgers with salad[/STRIKE] I have too many bread rolls, so will make up a vegi burger mix i've had in the cupboard for a while, never tried it before. Will have with salad

Wednesday - [STRIKE]chicken, leek and bacon mix with rice.[/STRIKE] I have an interview :j (2-3 hours :eek:) so don't fancy cooking anything major. Vegi burgers again with salad

Thursday - not sure, staying at my sisters overnight, so will probably eat there

Friday - my birthday Going out with my brother and sister and will be having a chicken dish in a creamy coconut sauce. Mmm! If they haven't got that, i'll cry

Saturday - [STRIKE]HM pizza. Not sure what yet, but have some jarred peppers to use[/STRIKE] Will make a huge batch of vegetable curry as got a massive marrow at the farm shop

Sunday - [STRIKE]chicken curry with rice[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]Marrow[/STRIKE] Vegetable curry

Here's the link to it elf.

You can watch them make it on iplayer, as I did, too.

It does use lardon, so basically bacon, and sounds lovely. My sons love it with bacon, too so I thought I'd take a chance and do the slight tweek that they do.
Fun to ring the changes sometimes.
