Right, I decided I was going to sort out my meals for this week as I'm all over the place and have loads of stuff to be used, looks like a tiny shop this week, just some salad, brocolli and carrots!
Breakfast - boiled egg or grilled bacon, tomatoes, mushrooms and toast.
Lunches - WG Pasta Salad with courgette, pepper, onion, tomato and leftover chicken or Greek Salad with Avacado.
Snacks, fruit, nuts, small piece of cheese.
Today - roast chicken, taters and parsnips with brocolli, carrots and gravy.
Monday - Blackened salmon with HM pineapple salsa, grilled courgette and crushed new pots with garlic.
Tuesday - HM beefburgers with blue cheese, grilled pots and salad.
Wednesday - HM turkey escalopes in breadcrumbs, mashed cauliflower and peas.
Thursday - HM chicken meatballs, rice and veg.
Friday - Grilled spicy fish and avacado salad.

Hi everyone
We're staying in my Mum and Dad's for a week-ish as of tomorrow while we have our chimney breasts taen out upstairs and down so the meal planning os going to be a bit hit and miss. I didn't batch cook this weekend either as we had the FIL and MIL staying plus we've been frantically packing things away so that they don't get too dusty...
So, raiding the freezer of stuff we already have, staring Monday in any ol' order:
Bacon Stir Fry
Bolognaise
Toad in the Hole
Pie and Chips
'Something else freezer' and chips
I'm going to be offline for about a week now as the computer's being packed away too so it doesn't explode with all the dust!! :eek:April 2021 Grocery Challenge 34.29 / 2500 -

chicken and mushroom curry & rice
