Chicken, potato and mushroom stew with rice for lunch / dinner with left over veg from last night to bulk it out. Wouldn’t normally use the mushrooms in a stew but they need to be used up so I am just chucking them in whole. I used 4 extra large thighs and chopped it up so hopefully it stretches to 2 meals for 3 people.Starting Total in September 2019 = £38287.77
Current Total = £25534.10

Happen to have some left over chicken. Just bought some broccoli and cheese. We have plenty of pasta and a cheese sauce sachet too... so makes sense to do pasta bake tonight.3

Well tonight WAS going to be cod fillets poached in a creamy parsley sauce, but I went shopping early this morning and managed to get one of the £1.50 wonky veg boxes from Lidl. It contains baking potatoes, cauliflowers, leeks and bananas this time (fortuitously all of which were on my shopping list anyway) but there’s two of everything (and the cauliflowers are huge) so it’s way more than I’d normally buy. I sense a change to the menu plan! Will now make some cauliflower cheese to have with plain pan fried cod tonight, ham-wrapped leeks in cheese sauce for tomorrow, cauliflower and potato curry for the freezer, use the trimmings to make leek and potato / harissa spiced cauliflower and potato soup for lunches, and whip up some banana custard for puds.
I’ve had a few of these Lidl veg boxes now, and they’ve always been really great value for money.5 -
