Sunday-Chickpea and potato curry
Monday-LO gammon in a stir fry
Tuesday-Cheese omelettes with coleslaw
Wednesday-Jacket potato with coleslaw
Thursday-Carbonara

Breakfasts will be over night oats or cereal, lunches will be lentil soup or noodles or left overs

I have £80 of Iceland vouchers if I need anything but I'm trying not to use them if I can help it. I have £12 cash left so that can get any small bits for the week.

I hope you all have a nice week :A
