    Sun- Is it wrong to fancy a gravy dinner weather dependant?? lol

    Never! Gravy is a major food group where I'm from.

    Although there's a serious lack of gravy in my meal plan this week (including yesterday) which I blame on being in the South, you know, below Chester ;-)

    Monday
    Breakfast - Ham and cheese croissant, energy drink
    Lunch - Noodles with chicken added
    Dinner - Spicy chicken breast with baked sweet potato

    Tuesday
    Breakfast - Cheese on toast
    Lunch - Spicy chicken breast and baked sweet potato
    Dinner - 'Pizza' made with reduced sandwich thins and reduced stilton, salad

    Wednesday
    Breakfast - Toast
    Lunch - Leftover pizzas & salad
    Dinner - Broad bean and [STRIKE]feta[/STRIKE] Stilton pasta. Changed as I have loads of Stilton left that I didn't expect.

    Thursday
    Breakfast - Toast
    Lunch - Leftover pasta
    Dinner - Something resembling a salad niçoise but not quite as posh

    Friday
    Breakfast - Cheese on toast
    Lunch - Stir fried noodles with chicken & veg
    Dinner - Something reduced likely

    Saturday - Travelling so will pack myself some snacks and will have late lunch/tea out. This may be my chips and gravy fix... :D

    Sunday
    Brunch - Proper Welsh breakkie
    Dinner - Likely to be a 'whatever meat is in the freezer' curry

    It's a bit samey with me using stuff up and nowhere near as tasty sounding as some of the meal plans but hopefully once I move home, I can start cooking properly again.

    That's the most common sense I've heard all day! ;)

    Bit later to the party this week but need to be more disciplined, was away last week so am using up bits from the freezer with minimal spendage topping up with fresh until next week at least.

    M- Ginger chilli salmon with rice & sweetcorn
    T- Home made cheeseburgers on muffins
    W- Nasi Goreng rice bake & naan bread
    T- thai chicken curry
    F- Butter pie
    S- out most of day so probably frozen pizza
    S- Steak, chips & trimmings

    Breakfasts are cereal and maybe scrambled egg on toast and grapefruit at weekend, lunches pick from ham/chicken rolls, leftover pork pie or cous cous salad
