Time to read through this old thread and start posting again/meal planning!

Good idea to bring this back

I meal plan but sometimes go a bit off track

Just finished my plan for tonight's shop

This week's plan:

"Meatball" (Quorn) stroganoff on whatever pasta I can find in the cupboard served with broccoli and peas.

Chicken (soya for me, real for OH) with mashed potatoes and vegetables (probably broccoli, runner beans, peas & sweetcorn).

Out for lunch with mine & OH's parents on Wednesday so dinner will be a snack - whatever we have in.

Minted pea, feta & bacon (soya for me, real for OH) omelette with hasselback potatoes and salad.

Bacon (soya for me, real for OH) and leek risotto.

Chicken (Quorn for both) & vegetable fajita stuffed baked potatoes served with salsa and sour cream.

Pizza with homemade wedges and salad.

We don't have them in a specific order, just whatever we feel like on the day or whatever needs using up.

I have gone way off track with meal planning recently and will get back on track. After a few hiccups recently - we haven't been grocery shopping in ages, but do still have some store cupboard ingredients, herbs etc.

I am planning to do a meal plan at some point this week, incorporating what we do have in our cupboards and freezer and go shopping at the weekend

I often find our meals are repetitive though and do attempt to try different things, and would love some inspiration (on a budget lol)
