Hi everyone just doing my meal plan for next week and can't see a new thread started yet so here goes:
1. tarragon chicken in mushroom & cream sauce with jacket potato and green veg
2. beef casserole with mushrooms, red wine, herbs and smoked bacon - with mash & veg
3. chicken curry & rice
4. medallion steaks with garlic mushrooms - oven chips for me, roasted sweet potatoes for DS
5. Liver & onions not eaten from this weeks meal plan
6. chicken & peppers in black bean sauce
7. roast chicken dinner
Breakfasts - toast with egg or beans or porridge. Have got a new recipe for bacon muffins so may give that a try.
Lunches - home made veg soup, instant noodles or leftovers.
I managed to mostly stick to plan this week apart from using up the liver in the freezer and using some mince instead for a chilli - so I will make an effort to use the liver next week !
Have a good week everyone
