Hi there, I have been meal planning on and off for a couple of years now. We are on a tight budget this month so I have planned right up to my husbands payday on 25th. Here's what we're having this week;
Monday - HM Shepherds Pie (left over lentil loaf with mash and veg for me, I don't eat red meat) and veg - I've made 2 shepherds pies and enough bolognaise sauce for about 4 meals to freeze out of a big pack of mince by adding some lentils and extra veg.
Tuesday - HM Macaroni Cheese with Veg (I'm making 2, one for the freezer)
Wednesday - Spicy Vege Sausage and Bean Stew with Rice (making enough stew for 2 meals and freezing half)
Thursday - Chick Pea Pasta
Friday - Fish fingers HM potato wedges and peas for children and Veg Curry and Rice from the freezer for grown ups!
Saturday - HM Pizza (we have the same nearly every Saturday night, we made double on Saturday and froze them so they are all ready - easy!)
Sunday - We are lucky enough to be going out for lunch for my brothers birthday, a lovely treat!
I hope this isn't too much info? I really enjoy reading and getting ideas from other peoples menus - thanks!June 2022 GC £372.89/£400
