mealplans WB 22nd October

JEEC

Sun - Roast Pork, with roast potatoes veg, gravy, stuffing and apple sauce
Mon - Gammon, mash, veg
Tue - Beef Casserole
Wed - Pork Steaks in BBQ seasoning, potatoes and veg
Thu - Chicken Chasseur
Fri - Sausage Casserole
Sat - Turkey stroganoff with rice/chips

We were going to have roast lamb tonight but we've invited OH's mum over, so now we're having pork as the joint is bigger.

Despite the mealplanning we've still managed to spend £112 this week (that's including adding on £6.50 for the pork which we bought from the farmer's market the other week). But I have bought stuff to take lunch into work this week. Our weekly spend was averaging £120 and that excluded lunches for work. So, we are slowly improving our spending. Also, we haven't had a takeaway / meal out for dinner for over 2 weeks now, which was also on top of the £120. I know we could still cut back even more, but at least we've made a start.

Hello everyone - plans look lovely as usual! Didn't stick to mine too well last week as ended up getting a fish supper on Thursday (was out much later than planned) and went to my parents' on Friday so didn't have what I'd planned then either.

S - Vegetable lasagne with salad
M - Chicken fajitas
T - [STRIKE]Veg Thai green curry with jasmine rice[/STRIKE] some sort of other veg curry, maybe dhansak couldn't get half the spices I needed at Mr A so changed plan
W - Beefburger for OH with salad and chips HM beanburger for me from freezer
Th - Turkey escalopes, potatoes & veg a new recipe using YS turkey breast steaks from freezer
F -Broccoli mac & cheese
S - Might go out or else something from freezer or pasta

As usual the days may change, but definitely doing the fajitas tomorrow as the chicken is marinading in the freezer already
