i have to get pack on track this week i haven't been very good a meal planning the last couple of weeks and it has really blown the budget last month so this month i will be good.

Meals for the week -
Sun - Roast chicken
Mon - leftover chicken
Tues - stew & baked potatoes
Wed - pasta (with bits from the cupboards will decide on the night)
Thurs - fish pie
Fri - pork chops
Sat - out with friends

Lunches will be HM soup and breakfasts are cereal / toast

Third week of doing this - last week I was rubbish at sticking to my meal plan BUT I did manage to avoid going to the supermarket and ate up what I had in the fridge instead, so hopefully I get brownie points for that.

Sunday - chickpea & aubergine curry (see other thread on aubergines)

Monday - Salmon with couscous, broccoli, runner beans

Tuesday - Pasta & HM tomato & veggie sauce, grated cheese

Wednesday - more aubergine & chickpea curry

Thursday - Salmon with rice pilaf, veggies

Friday - possibly going out for dinner/or whatever I've got leftover from the week (on my schedule, it is highly unlikely I'll get home for dinner every night after work!)

Starting late, did have the weekends planned but that has been and gone now, so here goes the rest

As usual, day order isn't riggid, fruit and veg depends what is in and needs using. Kids alternatives also in for when they can't/won't have what we are. Lunches are soups, sandwiches, toasties, pasta salads, baked potatoes etc. Loads of cereals etc in for breakfast. Packed lunches for school and when DP is at work.

Monday - Eating out possibly, if not will be Pizza
Tuesday - Chicken enchilladas
Wednesday - Fish and chips
Thursday - Omlettes
Friday - Bolognese (HM and batch cook for freezer) with garlic bread
Saturday - Quorn & veg curry with rice (just for me as DP will be at work)
Sunday - Beef brisket roast with yorkshires and veg

Isabelle - could I have the sesame roasted tofu recipe please? Haven't tried tofu in years; it might have improved since then.

Whenever I try and do HM potato wedges they never seem to work out. They're still pale and hard after 24 hours cooking!!!!!!!!

Can any of you share your succesful receipes to make them or will I have to go to Aldi again for theirs?

Cheers

I put them in a bowl and sprinkle with olive oil and little salt, stir.

Add a light layer of olive oil on a non stick baking tray, put it in the oven for a few minutes to heat it up.

Then tip the wedges on the baking tray, spread them out and put in for about 30-40 mins on 190-200c. It depends how big I make the wedges and also if there's something else in the oven that decides what temp I need to have the oven on.
