Hiya all...

Ive always had good intentions of doing a meal plan etc but never stick to it. but with kids going back to school next week i really want to get my house sorted, so meal plans and flylady seams a good start!.

Think I'll be joining you over on flylady this week Simba ...... house could do with a good clean up after the school hols

Right, 2nd week of mealplanning here and it's really helping me to stay focused and not spend too much (doing the GC so must stick to lists/plans !)

Breakfasts = cereal, toast, boiled egg & soldiers
Lunches = pack up for kids with tuna/sweetcorn pasta or rice, HM cake, piece of fruit and a yoghurt. Me and the A-levellers soup/HM bread or rolls. Omlette. Tuna & s/corn pasta.

Main meals:

Sun - SC lamb with roast potatoes, HG runner beans, peas and carrots, rice pud for dessert
Mon - Lamb byriani (with leftover from Sun) and 2p Mr S choc whip thingy
Tues - Meatloaf and HG runner beans (got a lot to use up )
Weds - Roast chicken, roast potatoes and veg (only a small chicken so not sure if any will be left over)
Thurs - Pork chops, mash & veg
Fri - Corned beef hash and baked beans. Apple pie & custard for dessert.
Sat - Bacon & onion flan and salad

Snacks will be HM muffins/oaty biscuits/fruit.

Hope everyone has a good week :beer:

Chopped onions softened add a tin of chopped corned beef add gravy granules and hot water season with pepper and a spalsh of worsestershire sauce. Fabulous over mash and a real taste of autumn

You know what, that is oddly quite similar to the "tatie stew" I already make . Recipe handed to me from my mum, from my mum's mum, not sure where it came from. I will probably be cooking up some of that soon, as the nights are drawing in and getting colder. Have you tried having yours with some ketchup on top? It's yummy.
