Last time I did this was 8th June...! Been away poorly with bad morning sickness and a whole host of other problems, so time to get back on the wagon I think, i'm 23 weeks and still can't eat much so below is more flexable then I used to be, and add to that I have to eat Low Gi for Health Reasons, so sometimes eat different from the boys...
So we'll see how it goes!

We spend money we don't have, on things that we don't need, to impress people we don't like. I don't and I'm happy!

Thanks for starting us off, JG!

Sunday - meatball tagine
Monday to Thursday -
plaice mornay (LO from M&S meal deal a couple of weeks ago), veg and chips

I'll be making a courgette cake this weekend, if the courgette / marrow is still OK (it's been in the fridge for over a week): if it's not OK, I'll be making a banana cake instead.
Back after a very long break!0 -

My friend made a Marrow Cake and no one liked it... but my DS9 couldn't get enough though and keeps begging me to make it. Do you have a recipe? Because my friend keeps fobbing me off when I ask! :cool:We spend money we don't have, on things that we don't need, to impress people we don't like.

I was planning on trying this one as it will also help deal with the slight overdose of carrots I have at the moment, but the recipe sexymouse linked to looks good as well. That could be a tough decision to make tomorrow. :think:frugalfrancesca wrote: »Please could I have the recipe for the chickpea and vegetable bake, it sounds lovely :)xx
You certainly can - it's another Good Food recipe - here. I change the veggies around according to what I've got - this week it will be carrot and squash rather than aubergine. It's a bit of a favourite of mine - I hope you like it too.Back after a very long break!0
