Well, probably it will be onion, garlic and chopped chorizo fried in a little oil. Then some chopped veg thrown in -carrots, peppers most likely. Some chickpeas from my freezer (about a can's worth), some frozen sweetcorn and a carton of passata and probably a splash of sherry. Bring to a boil then shove in the oven for 30 mins -1 hour. I'll serve it with baked spuds or cous cous I think.

HTH:)

Ok, I plan Monday-Sunday

Tuesday - Scrambled eggs on toast (not in until late)
Wednesday - Meatballs & pasta
Thursday - Stirfry beef and noodles
Friday - Liver, mash, veg and onion gravy
Saturday - out all day, won't be eating at home
Sunday - Tuna steaks with lentils

On the packed lunch menu, but no days assigned
Tuna salad (today)
Chorizo lentils
Beetroot hummus/crudites
Soup/Roll
