Meal plans WC 30th June
Comments
-
It's been almost a year since I last posted a meal plan on here! Back then, I'd just moved in with my boyfriend and meal planning had gone to pot. I've been trying ever since to get into the routine again, but it just never lasted more than a few days. So, I've sat and done a plan for the next month and will try my hardest to stick to it. I've also been batch cooking/preparing meals for the freezer to help a bit so am on a bit of a mission again. Here's the plan...
Monday - fish pie
Tuesday - pasta bake with garlic bread
Wednesday - cheesy bean burgers...maybe! I will be doing last minute revision for an exam on Thursday, so may have to change this...
Thursday - I'm at college, so either 'student night'* or we'll fend for ourselves!
Friday - (was sweet and sour chicken) Bangers and mash! Forgot to take chicken out of freezer, so a last minute decision and much needed comfort food after a LONG week!
Saturday - lamb meatballs in a creamy sauce with spaghetti/pasta
Sunday - roast chicken (slow cooker) with all the trimmings
*student night usually means toasted sandwiches as I don't get home until quite late.
Let's see how it goes...Grocery challenge - Nov: £52/£100

You can make up the bean burgers and freeze them and then just get out and leave in the fridge overnight. I always make up a batch of them and freeze individually because DH doesn't like them so I sometimes have them with some salad for lunch. Would also save you a lot of time as once they're done you'll have enough in the freezer for a few meals.
HTH.

Things have been moved around a little as we didn't fancy beef 2 nights running so I made the pie and we are having it tonight instead.
Sunday- Beef dinner with frozen cauliflower and broccoli and yorkshire puddings.
Monday-LO beef from dinner made in to a pie with chips and peas.
Tuesday- Sausage Carbonara
Wednesday- Corned beef pie with potato, cheese and onion gratin
Thursday-Chicken vindaloo with turmeric rice
Friday-Jambalaya made with chicken
Saturday- HM pizza and garlic bread
Sunday- Toad in the hole with frozen broccoli and cauliflower
Monday- Spam fritter with chips and peas
Tuesday- What ever is left over omelette with garlic bread
Wednesday- I have 1 piece of fish and enough fish fingers for the kids, I'll have what ever is left over and we'll have them with HM spicy wedges and peas
I worked very late last night until after 10pm so we just had the pizza as I had already made the bases so it was quicker.
I hope every bodies plans are going well :A£36/£240

I often have to change my plans around but the plan gives me a basis for what we're going to eat that week, even if we have it a different day!

Thank you. Funnily enough I made them up on Tuesday night as had more time, then breaded etc on Wednesday before cooking. I will make up a big batch at some point as really do like them
