Here, I have two teaching-free weeks and won't have to go into the office. So I need lunches as well. The children are at school Mon-Thurs and on Friday we head up to Edinburgh (by train) for a week. No meal plan that week, heehee. Restaurants and easy stuff (we're renting a flat).
Tonight: pasta & veg in cheese sauce, crumbed pork loin chops for the adults
Saturday: fish soup (haddock, squid, prawns) with hm foccaccia
Sunday: lasagne (veg version for DD, meat version for other people), salad
Monday: spicy pork mince & noodle dish for grown ups, cauldron mushroom burgers & beans for children
Tuesday: baked haddock loin with a crumb topping, roast cherry tomatoes, new potatoes & salad
Wednesday: baked risotto with various veges in it, plus chicken thighs in a spicy marinade for the meat eaters
Thursday: meatballs & spaghetti (just the tomato sauce for DD)
Friday: on train to Edinburgh (via Carlisle, not the East Coast route). Packed lunch involving sandwiches and some hm flapjack. Dinner at granny's.
My weekday lunches are: open turkey sandwich with salad and cranberry sauce; pasta with pesto & salad; hm tomato soup with cheese on toast; stir-fried veg in oyster sauce with noodles.Mortgage started on 22.5.09 : £129,600Overpayments to date: £3000June grocery challenge: 400/6000 -

Hi Hippeechiq
If I am honest I have never cooked Pork and Mushroom curry before
I found some chopped pork in the back of my freezer and I want to use my left over mushrooms up from today so thought that instead of doing my normal chicken curry I would use up the Pork instead.
Anyway here is the recipe I normally use..

Thanks for that mummy2jack..... I admire your honesty

Apart from the omission of 1 Tablespoon of Fish Sauce - which I really didn't like the sound of but actually didn't taste of much at all except salt - it's identical to a recipe for Thai Green Chicken Curry that I found on the net last week and tried out for the first time this week, and which was divine by the way.
Oh, and thanks for the welcome Kadeeae :wave:Aug11 £193.29/£240
