    What? That's what they're called, aren't they? ;)

    Change of plan for me as I've suddenly realised that I have no more money until I get paid on Friday, so I'll have to use only what I've got already:

    Sunday - chickpea curry, feta and naan bread
    Monday - apple and mustard pork with garlic mash and steamed chard
    Tuesday - satay veg noodles
    Wednesday - roast vegetable and feta lasagne
    Thursday - sausage and lentil stew
    Back after a very long break!
  • This is a fantastic idea! I really want to start organising a weekly food planner but it seems like I just never have the time to do it... but now I will have some inspiration to help me!
