I'm a bit late with mine this week (by my standards, anyway ). I've got / had:

Friday - sausage and tomato pasta
Saturday - takeaway - probably a Chinese, I think
Sunday - cheese and tomato pizza swirls and salad (I think you've started a trend, Iluvmymini :T)
Monday - pork and sausage cassoulet
Tuesday - refried bean and pepper burritos
Wednesday - garlic prawn wraps
Thursday - Western burger, chips and salad

I'm planning on making a pear and blackberry pie tomorrow, as I've got a bit of a glut of pears and a bagful of last year's blackberries still sitting in the freezer. Lunches will be pizza swirls until I've eaten them all, then sandwiches.

Need to go shopping later but here's the plan in no particular day order - anything in red is new stuff I want to try:-

Roast chicken/pots/onions/parsnips, brocolli, baby carrots, yorkies
Chicken chow mein (using leftover chicken), beansprouts, noodles, peppers, spring onions
Chicken Tikka (with M&S sauce), egg fried rice, prawn crackers
Liver, bacon, onion gravy, green beans, mash (may buy yams to cook/mash, never tried!)
Breakfast - bacon or gammon, scrambled egg, beans, roast or tin tomatoes, toast

And some easy meals in reserve if can't be bothered to cook "properly":-
M&S chicken parcels with Aunt Bessie croquettes and beans
Jacket potatoes with coleslaw or cheese
Battered fish, tartare sauce and home made wedges, mushy peas
Lidl chinese/indian ready made meals with jasmine rice
