Love coleslaw, that would have been my plan of attack.
Morning all, hope we are all well.
My fridge was a bit like Old Mother Hubbard's cupboards today so I have cheese, cucumber & mustard sandwich, 3 oranges & a yoghurt.Dwy galon, un dyhead,

Morning,
Left over curry and rice from our take away on Saturday for lunch today.
Beef Burgignon and mash for lunch tomorrow, leftovers from yesterday and baked potato on Wednesday for lunch, that was cooked in the oven whilst the burgignon was in.
List on page 1 updated, let me know if I've missed anyone or if there's any errors.
Have a great Monday

Well I have pretty much stuck with it and am now getting into the routine of bringing something in with me. Yesterday it was roast chicken dinner soup (basically the roast blitzed with a little stock) and today it's much the same with a dash of curry powder. Have brought some celery and rice cakes in with me too.
Thank you guys for keeping me on track. I'm looking forward to carrying it through February too.Onwards and upwards with the occasional kick up the butt required!

Morning,
I'm having my baked potato today for lunch as DS ate the left over beef bourgignon last night before cadets.
Everyone has done really well with lunches this month and I've loved seeing the different choices people have been having.0 -

Hello all,
Quick update, I didn't have time to bring lunch (poor excuse I know!) last Thurs or this Monday
But I did do last Friday and today... so I'm on 16/18
I won't quite make my target this month, but I'm pleased with what I've managed!0 -
I’ve done 16/18 so far. I didn’t take lunch in last Friday as it was my birthday so we all had chip shop lunch! I don’t mind, it was a one off for an occasion!!0

Hi folks,
Reducing my goal to 21 days as I ended up taking last Friday off work.
I'm afraid I've left it a bit long between posts to remember most of the lunches I had last week.
I know I defrosted a chicken and bean mix one day and shoved it in a wrap to make a sort of burrito type thing one day. There was also another grab'n'go special at one point with some stale seeded bread, cream cheese and the remainder of the 7p salami.
Mushroom vol-au-vents yesterday (last of the home-grown mushrooms and still using up the leftover xmas pastry).
Microwaved a potato today - had that with some cheese for lunch.
Tomorrrow is last day and I'm having the leftovers from tonight's dinner - Thai-style pork stirfry with green beans and basmati rice.
Might treat myself to a sandwich on Friday...:p
Well done to everyone!:T"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams."0
