£29,303...Enough is enough!

Fab, thank you. We all like fajitas & DH could have some sort of wrap/quesadilla etc with the same filling as our potatoes.

Made a big batch of Bolognese this evening with enough left for tomorrow, probably in the form of lasagne.

How about a curry?  Could make a big batch, perhaps in the slow cooker, and freeze in portions.

All of the above / any of the above sound yum

Yes, I always used to make a fakeaway chicken tikka masala in a huge batch and freeze portions. I also make really easy but tasty naan bread, which are also great for flat bread wraps. I'll add both to my list. Any idea if Lidl sells curry paste?

Thanks for all the great ideas!

Sorry can't help with curry paste from Lidl @WelshKitty85 as I don't use it.  I make up my own curry powder and use that plus a bit of fresh chilli if we want a bit of extra heat.

We use a recipe from the takeaway secrets book & that uses curry paste. It's a really good substitute for a takeaway.

Currently following the news about a local fishing boat that's missing. Puts things into perspective.

Yep me too, waters can be awful at best of times. DH works with ships that come in at Llan(.....) there's been some terrible events there recently. Hope the individuals are found safe and well!

fingers crossed for the fisherman

yes Lidl do sell curry paste - Tikka and Korma and Thai Green - they are pretty good

WelshKitty85

I keep checking for updates but still no news on the fishermen. Can't get my head round how they have just disappeared. My heart goes out to their families.

Thanks Mark, I'll pick some up tonight.

Managed to finish work an hour early today and got my grocery shop done. Did a rough meal plan beforehand and now having the makings of:
Chicken tikka masala (a big batch so the leftovers will go into the freezer)

Roast dinner (with either turkey or gammon from the freezer)

Fajitas

Leek & potato soup and part baked baguettes

Fish/fish fingers & chips

Jacket potatoes

Pasta bake

Quarter pounders & brioche buns

Also bought a couple of pizzas for the freezer for the nights we really can't be bothered.
