Might swap Saturday and Thursday. Also borrowed some ideas as my mind goes blank!!! Just need to work out what to go shopping for now, think I need some fish, mince and bacon...oh and chicken...I have a feeling I have everything else! And of course any extra meat can be frozen (what would we do without freezers???).

BTW sweet potato and butternut squash (I think) soup today!

I try to plan but end up winging as I keep changing my mind but here's my attempt.

Tonight - Chilli left over from yesterday's gathering
Lentil and sweet potato soup with pita bread and salad
Cajun style roast chicken pieces with spanish rice
Pasta Fagioli (pasta and bean soup), salad
Savoury chinese mince (Ken Hom recipe)and noodles/stirfry veg
Veggie curry of sorts - dalhs, aubergine, pepper, eggs, basmati rice
Brasied lamb and flagolet beans with pack of Italian style roast potatoes reduce from 1.79 to 30p. Good bargain but I'm sad as they are being discontinued

All I need to buy will be fresh fruit and veg, plus some milk.

Thank you for your ideas, they are certainly inspiring.

Yesterday we had tomato soup and beer bread which was very filling

Today I am making carrot and lentil soup, cheese and leftover bread and crackers. I have a Sharon Fruit, cape gooseberries and a banana - making a fruit salad from that

SATURDAY HM Pizzas
SUNDAY Chicken Wraps
MONDAY Cottage pie
TUESDAY Nachos with chilli for OH
Egg, Chips and Beans for Kids
WEDNESDAY Tuna Pasta Bake
THURSDAY Oh Speciality Mush
FRIDAY Pizza Fingers Potato Smiles

Not as home cooked as I would like this week as I am working the late shift at work and was not as prepared as I should have been so OH is taking over the cooking this week. I have the cottage pie in the freezer and thats about it.

BTW OH speciality mush is baked beans with scrambled egg mixed in and a tin of that bacon grill added to it. Sounds Horrible but is gorgeous!!!
