Thanks for starting the thread, Kadeeae. DH has said he should get serious about losing some weight, so we're on the lighter meals wagon again.....

tuesday - pumpkin & spinach quiche
wednesday - ossobuco in SC, mashed potatoes, steamed veg
thursday - buckwheat crepes with ham & mushroom filling, salad
friday - pasta with lemony meatballs sauce
saturday - tortellini and tuna salad
sunday - grilled steaks with HM wedges (or mediterranean roasted steaks)

SunnyGirl - could you share your recipe for Weetabix loaves, please? I still have half a box from when we had kids to stay, and I'd love to find a purpose for them.

Have a good week, everyone!

I wasn't very good at sticking to last week's mealplan, as I kept finding I didn't have the ingredients I needed to make what I'd planned. Meal planning only works if I get my shopping sorted out too!

This week's plan is far from fixed as what I'm doing keeps changing. At the moment it's:

Friday - probably out, but possibly something from the freezer before going out (I'm meeting my sister but I won't know until tomorrow afternoon what time she'll be arriving)
Saturday - pass. I might eat at lunchtime, I might eat in the evening, I might end up getting something out of the freezer. Who knows?
Sunday - as Saturday.

Hopefully things get a bit more organised from here on in:

Monday - chicken, pancetta and bean stew (from this month's delicious magazine)
Tuesday - pesto-coated pork chop with LO bean stew
Wednesday - beef stroganoff, some sort of veg, some sort of carb (possibly pasta, or maybe chips)
Thursday - egg and pea curry with garlic naan

(Actually, it's not that much more organised as I've just changed my mind while typing this post. I'll get this sorted at some point...)

No problem! Weetabix Loaf I double the recipe and it makes 2 in 2lb loaf tins. There's no fat in it but it lasts for a week easily. I also vary the dried fruit in it depending on what I have in. It's gorgeous toasted when it's become too dry to just slice & butter

Can you share your recipe for Pumpkin & Spinach quiche please? I have a butternut squash that I fancy using in it instead of pumpkin.
