So our week looks like this;

Lunches: Fridge gravel soup (made with bendy carrots, parsnips and celery. Then threw in a couple of onions, sweet potatoes and pumpkin. Then spices etc) Corned beef and onion pasty, and chocolate brownies. This should keep the tribe going.

Sun; Sausage stuffed squash with steamed greens and broccoli. (Got a box full of small squash at the market for next to nothing!)

Mon; Herb grilled lamb chops, bacon and blue cheese potato gratin, steamed broccoli and cabbage.

Tue; Smokey lentil chilli tacos with Mexican rice, refried beans, salad, salsa, guacamole and sour cream.

Wed; Pan fried rib eye with double stuffed jackets and courgette & asparagus salad.

Thurs; Cider-braised chicken thighs with pearl barley and wilted garlic greens.

Fri; Tadka dahl, coconut chutney, carrot&onion bhajis, herb salad and chapattis.

Sat; Chicken, leek and mushroom pie with steamed greens, mashed potato and roasted roots.

Hope everyone has a good week

THURS: HM chicken pie with potato wedges and peas for kids, green Thai chicken curry for the adults (Sainsb thai sauce, coconut cream from a hard block so it keeps for ages, mix with hot water - add chicken, mini corn, green peppers or green beans)

Oh I absolutely love a thai curry.. been so long since I had one though, cos I only need to think about coconut milk/cream and I put on three stones

Funnily enough, we stocked up on our porridge oats and sultanas this morning.

Breakfasts: Bacon thins for my OH; porridge for our daughter and either porridge or just a banana for me.

Lunches: packed lunch for daughter (thin with sliced ham and cucumber, boiled egg, yogurt, fruit and a mini cheese), and whatever's in the freezer for us.

Dinners: Bolognese, Spanish chicken, BBQ pulled pork, chicken fried rice.

Plenty of fruit for snacks. And olives for OH (yuck).

I am so bad at taking lunch to work! Often end up buying lunch for £3-£4 made from things I have at home. Grr. Need to get more organised.

Hey ho! I've switched my meal planning day to Wednesday, so plan starts Thursday (when shopping gets delivered).
Breakfasts are cereal with soy milk or green smoothies

Dinners:
Thurday - Lasagne
Friday - Pizza
Saturday - Shepherd's Pie
Sunday - Chilli & Rice
Monday - Thai green curry
Tuesday - Penne bolognese
Wednesday - Sweet potato dhal & rice
I'll spend tomorrow making soup, bread and cooking veggie mince bolognese type stuff to be used for the lasagne, bolognese and shepheards pie. May assemble the lasagnes and pies if I have time.

I've got HM yoghurt with oats and dried fruit to make over night

You're making your yoghurt overnight ? How ?
I have tried making yoghurt in the past but it was to watery.

You just mix milk powder with hot water then add a few tablespoons of left over live yoghurt.
I keep a few spoon fulls from the previous batch.
I do one part milk powder to 4 parts water for thin yoghurt and 3 parts milk powder to 4 parts water for thick more greek style.

It takes 8 hours on the bench. I make this during the day on a Sunday then before bed I weigh out 120g of it, add 40 grams of oats and 30g of dried fruit.
Then just grab a spoon and tuck in on the morning when I don't have much time.
