Hi all
I am due to goto Aldi tonight for my week's shopping but I am all out of inspiration!
I need food for about 7 days and need at least 4 meals that are quick and easy to cook after work. Getting a bit bored of chilli and spag bol!
I have pretty good basics in so just need some inspiration!
Any advice?0 -

No idea, without some suggestions as to what you do and don;t like to eat
How about I add this to this week's menu plan thread and you can have a browse at that:rudolf: Sheep, pigs, hens and bees on our Teesdale smallholding :rudolf:0 -

I see your point :rotfl:
Its only my hubby and myself, we eat pretty much anything but hubby loves his meat and has a huge appetite so feeding him can be a mission!
Mushrooms and tomatos are the only things we dont eat but we can usually manage a tomato sauce in pasta etc.0
