My meal plan for last week went totally out of the window, but I don't feel too bad about it as I stuck to my rule: I can have something else if I don't fancy what's on my plan, but only if it's something from the freezer or cupboard - no buying something different! It's working well at running down the contents of the freezer, too.

Friday - Thai prawn noodles (moved from last week when I realised I didn't have any rice noodles left :doh:)
Saturday - takeaway pizza, using the code on the right (well, it's there as I'm typing - it may disappear later). It's very naughty, but I've had a lousy week what with one thing and another and feel the need to collapse on the sofa with junk food
Sunday - green chilli con carne (made with green chilli sauce, not green meat! )
Monday - ravioli pasta bake (the ravioli has a beef filling, so it should be something like a super-fast lasagne)
Tuesday - veggie burger inna bun with salad
Wednesday - chilli bean-stuffed squash
Thursday - Spanish fish stew and bread or potatoes (I'll decide which later)

I've just remembered that I meant to put Boodle's olive roulade on my plan this week - oh well, it can go on next week's plan instead!

MON: Chilli wraps with salsa & sour cream.
TUE: Beans on toast or omlettes.
WEDS: Chicken breasts with roast pots & yorkshires.
