Monday - chicken burritos (chicken and peppers from freezer)
Tuesday - spaghetti Bolognese (mince from freezer, jar of sauce from cupboard) with garlic bread from freezer
Wednesday - turkey curry (freezer)
Thursday - oven bits. Crispy chicken, waffles and veg most likely
Friday - usually date night, maybe just a chippy this week
Saturday I'm being treated to a day in London with my nan to see Miss Saigon so OH will fend for himself from the freezer. Sunday we have people coming over for my bday party, using up party bits from the freezer!

As you can probably tell, I'm on a mission to clear our freezer this week so I can cook more. Breakfast I have porridge, OH has coco pops from our costco supplies. Lunches - freezer bits, leftovers and soups for me, with lots of fruit and veg (I snack a lot at work) and chicken sandwiches for fussy OH

Just remembered that we are out at a retirement party on Friday so I will do the risotto on Saturday and we will have the stilton, brocolli and bacon soup for lunch on Friday.

Same meals but just jiggled around a bit

This week we're having:

M - Chicken, bacon, butterbean and cabbage stew thing from Jack Monroe's new-ish book
T - Leftover Chicken stew for me, chicken soup for OH
W - Quorn Swedish meatballs with mash, cauliflower, brocolli and carrots
T - Mushroom and leek garlic and herb pasta for me, Soup for OH again
F - Enchiladas

OH is on the 5:2 diet so I'm left to fend for myself for 2 nights of the week. We're going out for dinner with family on Saturday and Sunday so no plans there yet.

The plan for this week

Fish, Chips & mushy peas
Nasi Goreng
Pasta & sundried tomato
Shepherds pie
Roast Chicken
Chicken Pie
Freezer meal

Need to have a look through my recipe books as I am stuck in a rut at the moment on a few repeated meals (but well liked by the family).
Will aim to add something new per fortnight I think
