Have a good week, everyone!"Remember that many of the things you have now you could once only dream of" - Epicurus0 -
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...)
