Tuesday - Leftovers

Thursday - Lemon, garlic and herb drumsticks with rice
Friday - Fish fingers and chips (using up freezer things)
This week has gone to plan so far, but have lots of leftovers to eat.0 -
Thanks for starting us off again, PenPen! :T
My mealplan for last week has wandered off track a bit over the past couple of days, although as it's all been stuff from the freezer or storecupboard it's not the end of the world. I'm hoping to stick to this week's plan, though:
Friday - field mushroom and stilton 'burger' (served inna bun) with salad and chips
Saturday - takeaway - a rare treat after a hard week
Sunday - pasta bolognese
Monday - moussaka with herby focaccia
Tuesday - Thai prawn and aubergine curry with coconut rice
Wednesday - chilli con carne and squash pasta bake
Thursday - aubergine and ricotta layer bake with HM bread of some sort
It's a bit heavy on the mince this week but I got a load on special offer at the end of last year and have been thinking that I really must start using it.I must also find a use for the clementines that are sitting in my fruit bowl - they're too sour to eat raw, so I'm thinking a cake of some sort may be in order. :think:
Back after a very long break!0 -

Thanks, PenPen for starting the thread.
Here's what we're having this week:
Monday: Chicken Biryani
Tuesday: Spanish Omelette
Wednesday: Not sure yet, might be sausage casserole...
Thursday: Lasagne c/w garlic bread
Friday: Pork Fajitas
Saturday: Minced Beef & Onion Pie with Mash
Sunday: Leftover pie & chips
I need to do a spot of baking, so there'll be a batch of rock buns for the tin, as well as a ginger cake (thanks for the inspiration, PenPen! When I saw that in your post, I just had to). There'll be fruit as well, and I shall do the usual sandwiches or leftovers for lunch. I bought a packet of sushi rice with the intention of trying to make some of that for my lunches as I don't tend to eat very much at work - we'll see!
Have a good week, everyone.
