Hello all and thank you poppy-glos for starting us off again!
Monday 5th - Chicken left over from sunday roast, mash & beans (has to be quick as we have Brownies to get to!)

Weds - shepherds pie & veg
Thurs - Tuna, pasta & veg (I sneak veggies in at all times lol!)
Fri- Pizza & Garlic bread
Sat - Fish fingers, mash & beans
Sunday - roast of some sort0 -
Hi all, just a quick one - I have searched I promise... and I mostly come looking for CCP or anyone who can cook OS-y
.
How flattering!:) I've never tried making croquetas although I've eaten them in Spain - I'll definitely be trying that recipe poppy-glos. :T
Back after a very long break!0 -
Saturday - fish pie; salmon, cod and prawn with crusty bread
Sunday - roast pork & Chicken joint wrapped in bacon, roast pots, cauli cheese, stuffing, selection of baby veg and gravy ( this is rather like the last meal before returning to work after 6 weeks off!)
Monday - bolognaise crumble with cheesy topping
Tuesday - bacon, sausage, eggs, toms, mushrooms
Wednesday - Chicken Korma, Pilau Rice, Naan breads
Thursday - Ham and pineapple pizza, salad, oven chips (quick tea as out to cinema)
Friday - Take out ... to celebrate making it thru my first week with my new class!
Lunches - mixed salad with various toppings such as grated cheese, tuna, salmon, egg and fruit for pud
Burp x0 -
Monday 5th - Enchiladas
Hubby will be cooking this evening as enchiladas are his speciality, will be made using leftover chicken from Sunday's roast dinner
Tuesday 6th - Chicken lasagne
This is an experimental tea as I've never made it before, again will be using up the leftover chicken
Wednesday 7th - Egg and chips
No doubt hubby will be complaining about too much chicken by now so a 'naughty' tea should appease him (even if the chips are home made)
Thursday 8th - Lamb chops
We were just saying the other day how we'd not had these for ages so think we are going to splash out and enjoy
Friday 9th - Home made pizza
Saturday 10th - Baby shower buffet leftovers
Sunday 11th - Toad in the hole
All will be accompanied by the necessary rice/potato/pasta and veg/salad
Lunches for me will be whatever is in the store cupboard - got some soups, tortellinis, ryvita and laughing cow, tinned spaghetti etc. so a lot of variety.
Lunch for hubby will be the usual sandwich, crisps, choccy bar, fruit and fruit yoghurt.0 -
