Saturday - lunch: salad, tea: out
Sunday - lunch: avocado pasta, tea: fish curry
Monday - lunch: chicken, veg & noodles, tea: home late, will just grab something quick when I get in
Tuesday - lunch: salad, tea: lamb with spicy aubergines
Wednesday - lunch: lamb and salad pitta, tea: salmon with lentil & rice salad, beetroot
Thursday - lunch: leftover lentil & rice salad with added veg, tea: chicken casserole
Friday - lunch: leftover casserole, tea: greek lamb stew

All subject to change due to slightly unpredictable week and depending on supermarket actually having everything I want!

Have a good week everyone.

2. fish with parsley sauce with mashed potato/swede
3. roast chicken dinner, roasties, HM stuffing -TWICE as we love it:D
4. HM savoury meat pie
5. thai salmon for me/chilli for hubby
6. corned beef hash with dumplings

All served with heaps of broccoli, carrots, cabbage, nobbies, celeriac, peas n sweetcorn -in varying quantities...

This week my plan looks like this......

Sunday: Chicken, Roasties, Broccoli, Green Beans, Stuffing
Monday: Chicken and Veg Pie (yesterdays leftovers) and mash
Tuesday: Beef Curry & Noodles
Wednesday: Egg, HM Chips & Beans
Thursday: Tuna pasta bake
Friday: Sausages, mash and onion gravy

I don't have a Saturday to do this week as we're going away, self-catering, on Saturday for a week which means I do have to think about next week though..........

So, also this week I'll be making and freezing Tomato & Bean Soup and Chilli Con Carne to take with us. I have all the makings for a fish pasta bake, pizza and toppings for baked potatoes while we're away.

I did my weekly butchers and grocers shop yesterday so I think I'm all set.
Let's see if I can manage to do it this week - I've made plans for a while but seem unable to stick to them - I thought if I wrote it down here I'm less likely to fall off the wagon.......!!:o
