Gosh it's been a while - but I need to get back in the habit of meal planning
We've been super naughty for the last few weeks because first the baby was very poorly so lots of sleepless nights and A&E trips - she's now fine but I've got a cold grrr cue more sleepless nights thanks to coughing and sniffling... but onwards and upwards as they say 
So...
Mon - ok another naughty evening - I DID have food planned but hubby has decided we're going out... apparently something to do with it being my 30th or something...
Tues - Chorizo and pea rice - aka seafoodless paella
Weds - Salmon poached in whitewine a la economy gastronomy
Thurs - Moroccan Lamb Tagine - nice and warming...
Fri - Fridge soup (aka emtpy the fridge! Looks like potato and leak at the moment...)
Sat - Rubber chicken with roast veg
Sun - Fajita's with left over chicken
Phew... progress! And I actually don't think I need anything other than spuds... miracle!
ETA - Breakfast for me and the small person will be yogurt - making my own and also have LOADS of muesli samples from the good food show - about the only things I DID get *grumble grumble grumble*
Lunch will more than likely be leftovers or sandwiches (for me... small person has loads of frozen pureed food in the freezer

Hi,
I have become an out of control food shopper!! spending £70-100 a week on 3 of us.
Ive decided to meal plan for the week hopefully this should reduce the cost ?
I dont do packed lunches as husband works nights.
Any other idea's welcome.
Thank you
Lisa0
