Usually I have too many ideas for my meal plan, but i've really struggled this week for some reason. Anyway, the plan is...
Monday - [STRIKE]pasta with garlic and herb cream cheese and tomatoes[/STRIKE] had a friend round and we got a chinese
Tuesday - [STRIKE]chicken bites with chips and beans[/STRIKE] pasta with garlic and herb cream cheese and tomatoes
Wednesday - [STRIKE]toad out of the hole with swede, parnsip and gravy[/STRIKE] vegetable frittata with baked beans
Thursday - quesadilla with caramelised red onion, sweetcorn and cheese
Friday - french bread pizza (well, using a part baked baguette) with potato wedges
Saturday - satay chicken with rice
Sunday - pork and cider in slow cooker (no specific recipe, but I have pork and cider taking up freezer space so it needs using!)
I have loads of bits to use for lunches, so they will probably be soup, quiche or sandwiches using whatever odd bits of bread/rolls/scones I have!Grocery challenge - Nov: £52/£100

Hi All and a Very Happy New Year.
Been poorly for a few weeks, so haven't really been planning or eating very much. DH hasn't done a bad job, but it has been rather adhoc shopping and cooking. Planned last week fairly well - but haven't switched a computer on for over a week as just wanted to stay away from them for a bit.
Anyhoo - back now and back into planning now i'm 90% better.
This week we are having / had:
Mon: Fridge Raiders Pasta Bake & Garlic Bread
Tues: Beef & Ale Casserole & Mash
Wed: Roast Chicken with all the trimmings
Thurs: Chicken Fried Rice (using LO Chicken)
Fri: Eat Out - our treat from saving 20p's, 10p's, 5p's, 2p's and 1p's during 2010
Next week I will go back to planning from Thurs - Wed.
Have a good week all.
