Hi all

I can't see any threads where posters have been putting up their weekly meal plans. Are members still doing this?

Th - HM Scottish steak & "slice" pie, tatties and loads of veg!
F - Chicken fajitas and all the trimmings

Here's ours - have planned to the 18th so will be good to keep track -

29th Monday - BBQ Chicken with cabbage, potatoes and carrots (very nice too)
30th Tuesday - Sausage with egg and chips
31st Wednesday - Brunch of bacon eggs tomatoes and mushrooms - out for dinner party
1st Thursday - LO Chilli with jackets and salad (+ paracetamol!)
2nd Friday - HM Fish pie with veggies - changed to veg crumble to use up veg
3rd Saturday - Spinach and tomato pasta with sauce
4th Sunday - Roast chicken dinner with all the trimmings

From the 5th will be 'meatless' Mondays so will be 'sperimental'.

I'm trying to empty the freezer and cupboards over the next few weeks, so attempting to stop buying things!
This week's plan looks like this -
M - Pork and veg stir fry with rice noodles
T - Singapore noodles with beef and veg
W - HM leek and potato soup for lunch, out for dinner
T - Roast lamb with mashed potatoes, purple sprouting broccoli, green beans, sprouts and gravy
F - Leftover lamb and veg with gravy
S - Bubble and squeak cakes
S - Quesadillas with corn on the cob (veg, cheese, salsa and refried beans in wraps)
M - Quesadillas again


Bagels and cream cheese for breakfasts, tuna sandwiches or soup for lunches. Fruit jelly or yogurt for snacks.

I love Quesadillas with any stuffing, they're so versatile. With a hm chunky coleslaw they make a great, filling dinner - and fairly healthy too.

Oops, I wonder if a mod or OP could change the title?

I have never tried quesadillas - what are they?

Today - steak, chips, salad and peppercorn sauce
Thurs - gammon in mustard sauce, cauliflower cheese, mash
Fri & Sat - roast chicken and all the trimmings
Sun - chicken pasta bake using left over chicken

That's as far in advance as I can plan! I don't need to buy anything so will be staying out of the shops!
We were going to have a Chinese tonight but bought some nice steak instead (YS £1.65), salad was 15p, peppercorn sauce 20p and chips are in the freezer (will prob use about £1 worth) so dinner tonight is £3 instead of the twenty something we would have spent on a takeaway!
