  • Hi, all! I'll add this to the Complete Menu Plans Collection soon!

    This week, we're having:

    Sunday - roast beef, yorkshires, veg (made by DH); HG baked apples with dried fruit and mascarpone

    Monday - aubergine and mozzarella pasta bake with salad

    Tuesday - beef and dumplings

    Wednesday - chick pea and veggie burgers, in a bun with salad

    Thursday - spicy pork

    Friday - fish pie

    We had friends to stay over the weekend, so I make blueberry muffins and welsh cakes for breakfast. There are a few left for tomorrow. I'll also be making a cake (Racy Red's Toni cake looks good), some butterfly buns (for DS) and biscuits (for DD). DD will be having wraps in her lunch box - ham, avocado and mascarpone to start the week.

    Have a good week, Penny. x

    Monday 29th – Lasagne with chips, peas and sweetcorn (left overs from tonight)
    Tuesday 30th – SC Moroccan Lamb Chops (recipe from here)
    Wednesday 31st – SC Sausage Casserole (MATH's recipe)
    Thursday 1st – HM Steak and Ale Pie with chips
    Friday 2nd – Creamy Bacon and Leek Pasta
    Saturday 3rd – Jacket Potatoes with either cheese or tuna
    Sunday 4th – Gingham's 3 Bean Chilli with rice

    Mainly quick and easy or SC for us this week as I'm back at uni and also working friday night and all day saturday and sunday. Most of the meals will be made to recipes for 4/6 portions, so most will be frozen for use in the last week of the month where I will not cook a single meal :D

    Lunches will be sandwiches, although OH's grandfather is treating us on monday, and as OH is off tuesday I'll probably do something hot :D

    Nice to see some new menu planners, Celyn90 and Lamplady (and you have delicious menu's too!)

    Mon : Smoked Haddock, spinach and tomato bake
    Tues : Chicken with avocado salsa and new potatoes
    Weds : minestrone with crusty bread
    thurs: toad in the hole, mash and veg
    fri : chicken satay kebabs with special fried rice
    sat: Hm fish and chips and mushy peas
    sun: roast beef and trimmings

    Made some savoury muffins and banana bread for lunch for the week as well as leek and potato soup for dd and I.
  • Our meal plan for the week is as follows, and I'm particularly pleased as it is all home-made bar a portion of chips on Wednesday.
    Breakfast: branflakes with raisins
    Lunch: Mon-Weds spicy couscous with roasted vegetables (using some of the veg we bought to today's roast); Thurs-Fri potato gratin (using rest of potatoes and veg from today's roast)
    Dinner:
    Mon - chicken curry (using rest of chicken from today's roast. Also using my slow cooker for the first time! Wish me luck!)
    Tues - lasagne with salad
    Weds - lasagne with chip shop chips for dbf; I'm going out :j
    Thurs - pork with some of the veg and potatoes from today, sauteed apples and cheese sauce
    Fri - steak salad for dbf; I'm out again (good for food budget, not so good for my own spending budget!)

    Have just realised that salad stuff wasn't on fruit and veg list for the week, so have to get some tomorrow. Grr. That means budget will be even more stretched than it is already. Oh could cry...


    New flat, new budget, new commitment to MSE!

    Hi! First time I've posted on this thread, but do usually manage to plan and stick to the weekly menu. This week:
    Sunday -Roast lamb + veg
    Mon. - Moussaka
    Tues. - Shepherd's pie
    Wed. - liver & bacon
    Thurs. Spag. Bol.
    Friday. Pasta & pesto sauce
    Sat. (out!)
    Years ago I used to do a four week plan and rotate, but haven't yet got back to being that organised - it was before I learned to drive and was dependent on a friend to take me into the nearest town!
    Resolution:
    Think twice before spending anything!
