Hi all

Firstly, can I apologise to CupOfChai for not posting the Chicken recipe - its been absolutely manic this week with taking Dad to the hospital etc... I hope to post it later if still interested - I did look for a link on the internet, but it seems to only be in my Ken Hom Hot Wok book.

Secondly, mealplans didn't go too well last week, but succeeded in no buying anything extra and just used things that were knocking round the house - here's to a more sane week!

Finally, here is what we are having this week:

Thurs: Breaded Fish; HM Garlic Dip & Salad in pitta bread with wedges
Fri: Our monthly meal out - can't wait - get to spend time with hubby!
Sat: HM Lamb Meatball Tagine with Cous Cous
Sun: Eat at DH's parents - but will be making a pud with LO oranges (on front cover of this month's good food mag)
Mon: HM Lasagne & Salad
Tues: Salmon with Cream & Dill Sauce, & Rice
Wed: Steak Sandwich etc.. alla Jamie's 30 Minute Meals

Have a good week all.

I haven't been sticking to my meal plans recently so I decided not to do one last week to see if that worked better for me. As you can tell by the fact I'm back posting again, it didn't!

It's rubber gammon this week:

Friday - ravioli pasta bake
Saturday - pizza - from the supermarket counter as it's cheaper than a takeaway
Sunday - boiled gammon with winter root mash
Monday - chicken and ham pie and veg
Tuesday - gammon, split pea and greens soup with HM bread
Wednesday - nutty chicken curry with veg curry and naan bread
Thursday - cheesy veg pasta bake

Lunches will be LOs and lots of gammon sarnies. :drool:
