Meal Plans WB 24 January

Nottoobadyet

Greetings, all!

I know its a bit early, but I think most of us are getting to the end of January blues so need to be planning our meals well! I hope people don’t mind me starting the thread - never done it before.

The two of us are having:


· Thursday: friend coming by for dinner, having pasta with HM aubergine sauce and pesto stuffed mushrooms


This is possibly the most delicious thing I cook, recipe here: http://www.thewednesdaychef.com/the_wednesday_chef/2010/06/francis-lams-letmyeggplantgo-free-spaghetti.html

· Friday: L/O veggie bolg pasta bake with salad or something on the side


Needs to be eaten ASAP!

· Saturday: L/O carrot and coriander soup for lunch, out for dinner


Soup was last week’s new recipe, very successful

· Sunday: Moroccan spiced aubergine


Looks scrummy, new for me: http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2011/jan/19/moroccan-spiced-aubergine-recipe-marcus-wareing)

· Monday: Veggie chilli from freezer on rice or garlicky bulgur wheat


Batch cooked last week and very tasty

· Tuesday: Vegetarian Frittata


Mums recipe, with spinach, sweet potato, tomato, onion and egg

· Wednesday: L/O Vegetarian Frittata


Breakfasts are cereal or omelettes, lunches are leftovers and soup from freezer

• Saturday: Normally my boyfriend and I's special evening of the week so Balsamic Glaze Chicken w/ Roasties, Swede and Carrot Mash and Broccoli
• Sunday: Honey and Mustard Chicken w/ Swede and Carrot Mash and mixed veg HOWEVER...I normally get invited to my boyfriend's parents house for supper on a Sunday but he only remembers to ask me on Saturday so this could well change!
• Monday: Weight Watchers ready meal and vegetables and possibly more carrot and swede mash but fried in patties!
• Tuesday: Philly stuffed chicken breast and homemade paprika wedges
• Wednesday: Weight Watchers ready meal and mixed veg
• Thursday: Chicken, Bacon, Mushroom and Philly Pasta
• Friday: If I feel like being adventurous after work (13 hr day) a frying pan pizza, if not another WW ready meal

I'm down to my last £10 this coming week so will be very much make do with what's in my very well stocked cupboard and freezer. The only thing I may buy is the Aldi Super 6 Veg/Fruit and some Milk

Too right :rotfl: Traditionally, OS Meal Plan weeks start on a Monday (which is what you have put in the title). So we ask posters not to start the thread until Thursday of the previous week at the earliest.

I'll leave this for this week, but in future, please add onto the current thread, and start a new one on Thursday soonest

Thank you all :A

Wow the last full week of January, how soon time flys!!!

We are doing well on adding vegetarian meals to our meal plans, I am not getting any complaints at all... so here goes another week with only 3 days of meat

Saturday 22nd - Beef Stew and Dumplings
Sunday 23rd - Husband Parents visiting and Taking us to Dinner
Monday 24th - Leftover Beef Stew and Dumplings
Tuesday 25th - Fish Fingers, Mash and Beans
Wednesday 26th - Vegetarian Chilli and Rice
Thursday 27th - Leftover Vegetarian Chilli and HM Wedges
Friday 28th - Fried Potatoes and Onion with Chritzo

It's very Potato heavy because I got a good offer on them, and no where I store them in my house makes them keep... so I have 2, maybe 3 weeks to use them all!!

I have a lot of scones and rock cakes left from last weeks baking, so I will only be making Blueberry Muffins this weekend for my Husbands Parents when they visit!

Good luck everyone x

I must confess that my mealplan for last week went totally out of the window - I ate what I'd planned only 3 nights out of 7, which really isn't good enough. My main aim for the this week is to actually stick to my plan.

I've got:

Friday - ham, ricotta and pesto pizza
Saturday - braised sausages and lentils
Sunday - cheese and tomato pasta bake
Monday - ricotta-stuffed chicken with roast veg
Tuesday - vegetable and cashew noodles
Wednesday - steak and blue cheese pie and veg (using frozen LO beef stew)
Thursday - beanburger puffs

So far for WB 24th Jan, I've got:

Monday - L: hummous, carrot sticks and pitta. pie, mash and beans.
Tuesday - L: hummous, carrot sticks and pitta. bacon and tomato pasta.
Wednesday - L: LO pasta. prawn curry and rice.
Thursday - L: LO curry and rice. corned beef hash and mash.
Friday - L: sandwich. egg, chips and beans.

And that's as far as I've got! Think I might be away at Boyfriend's that weekend but not certain yet. Hmm, do you think that week looks rather bean-heavy...
