Reverse Meal Planning

joedenise

I've meal planned up until mid December using quite a lot from the freezer.  Will only need to buy some chicken thighs and sausages meat wise, I think!

I got out some beef bourguignon for dinner last night but there was more than enough for that plus lunch for us both today.  I added some LO boiled potatoes to it plus some mixed veg and we had a good plateful each at lunchtime.  Hadn't realised I'd frozen such a large portion in one go.  Would have been better to have frozen in 2 lots and then I could have made it 2 main meals rather than one (we'd have had slightly less than we did last night each time!)

Gosh you are so organised @joedenise - put me to shame.  I have planned up to the end of the week and am feeling quite proud of myself    Our freezers are very full so I am trying to use things up before doing any Christmas shopping. I am finding lots of little 'bits' so I am planning on having a few use it up meals.

Oh goodness. No planning at all here. Got my exams and so just pulling something out of the freezer. Maybe fish fingers this evening. As I have my final study buddy revision session at 7.30pm

I generally plan for the next month at the end of this month - so end of October I planned for this month.  As we are going away for a couple of weeks over Christmas I decided to plan up until we go away and to use up as much as possible from the freezer.

So yes I am organised with meal planning but unfortunately not with anything else!  I'm totally unorganised with most things but I do like to know what we're going to be eating for breakfast, lunch and dinner!
