Saturday: dvd night (pizza, crisps, dip, popcorn)
Sunday: roast chicken with pots and veg.Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you. Anne Lamott
It's amazing how those with a can-do attitude and willingness to 'pitch in and work' get all the luck, isn't it?

how exactly does one make Cobbler?
I've been thinking about more variation for beef dishes, but only really make spag bol, which becomes lasagne, and stew or chilli.Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you. Anne Lamott

Hi all
After a dreadful couple of weeks which involving lots of takeaways purely because of cba syndrome - I've done a meal plan this week!
Sunday - Roast pork with all the trimmings - Some form of cake/pie??
Monday - Chilli and rice/tortillas
Tuesday - Chicken Paella
Wednesday - Spag Bol
Thursday - Fishfingers, chips and peas (I'm out so something very very easy for OH!)
Friday - Sausage and Mash
Saturday - Lasagne and Salad
All are subject to being moved around and changed due to whether Asda has any whoopsies when I go shopping later!!
All meals are quite easy to make and just involve chucking in the SC before work every day. I've just changed hours so now I finish at 6pm and OH hasn't quite got the hang of cooking for the family yet!Made it - 15 years married!! Finally!! xx:beer:0 -
Here's mine for the week
Sat: Venison burgers with salad
Sun: Lamb Tikka Kebabs with Salad
Mon: Toad in the Hole
Tues: At Mum's
Weds: Spanish Omelette
Thurs: Pork Fajitas
Fri: Chicken Curry
Breakfasts will be cereals, lunches will be sandwiches and any snacks will be fruit. I'm trying to get us to be a bit healthier
Have a good week, everyone
