the best place to start with any meal plan is
a) what do you already have in
b) what sort of things do you like?
Start by doinbg a FULL inventory of everything you have in alreay ( down to your herbs & spices!)
then you can post this up and we can suggest what you could make out of whats there already.
Eg one pack of mince can make
burgers
spag bol
canneloni
meatloaf
meatballs
spicy mexican style meatballs
lasagnes
and more!
Depends what you like really, what your budget is ( in moneyterms) and whats the most important- the important thing I think is minimising waste, this is the true bolt of OSing:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...
So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:0 -
