Has also helped the grocery budget.
This week is
Mon- toasted cheese sandwiches.
Tue- Tuna canneloni
Wed- Lentil bol
Thu- Sausage casserole with mustard (a recipe from the boards)
Fri- Vegetable lasagne
Sat- Bacon and potato wedge bake (another recipe from here)
Sun- Cottage pie...it is not of more importance than daily life, which I have an enduring wish to make as useful and beautiful as possible.

Hi all,
This is week 2 planning and like others also have non OS food to use up so the menu is a combination until I get in to the swing! Also think gradually weaning my lot off non OS food may be more successful.
Menu plan worked well last week but realise from others that it not a sin to have 'easy nights' when I am working (mon-fri) so am aiming to try and batch cook for the freezer instead of storing stuff in there that is too good to go in the bin although usually seems to get there eventually.
Mon - HM chilli and rice, mild version for them and a hotted up version for me.
Tues - Chicken in sauce with pasta (with hidden veggies)
Wed - Beef curry with rice and nan bread (again hotted up for me)
Thurs - Chicken lasagne from the freezer (made last week) with veg
Friday - Spaghetti bolognaise (plan to double up)
Saturday - Sausage and mash with cabbage and carrots
Sunday - Full English as requested by DS2 and dining out in the evening (courtesy of M&D)
Puddings are fruit yoghurts jelly and icecream as all the pies and made desserts have gone. Think I may have a bash at some HM cookies too.
We all take packed lunches so that is 20 per week!
Good luck
