We're running on store cupboard this week and using up the fridge contents as we're going away on Thursday evening so I don't want to have to go shopping and perishabales are a no go area after the forgotten veg last time we went away... _pale_ :rotfl: Not making cake this week - we have a lot of fruit to use up and yogurt that has to be eaten, so OH can eat that if he wants sweet stuff.

So:

Sunday lunch: Chicken breasts (frozen), carrots, roast potatoes, apple pie
Sunday dinner: Cheese on toast
Monday lunch: HM store cupboard noodle soup, fruit
Monday dinner:Store cupboard random pulse curry , rice
Tuesday lunch: Rest of random curry, rice
Tuesday dinner: HM pizzas - toppings from fridge random stuff
Wednesday lunch: store cuboard rice salad, fruit
Wednesday dinner: Fish fingers, HM potato wedges, frozen peas
Thursday lunch: baked potatoes, topping from fridge random stuff
Thuirsday dinner: will be in Germany by then

Have a good week everyone

Lots of upheaval in the cl household last week, most of meals we had, but in different order to that posted!;) and i substituted a pasta/tuna bake with fish and chips-so we can have that meal out the freezer one day this week!

Hopefully, this week will stay on track, i'm planning:

Sat- Roasted Sausage and onions with celeriac mash and crushed peppercorns and onion gravy.
Sun- Roasted mediterranean veg, feta cheese, HM bread.
Mon- Corned beef hash (made with leftover mash from Sat:D )
Tue-Tuna and sweetcorn pasta bake (freezer).
Weds- Aromatic Morrocan lamb (freezer), cous cous.
Thurs- Oriental chicken/noodles
Fri-Chilli (freezer), rice.

Hope everyone has a good week:D

Payday on Fri :j To plan to do a shop then for Christmas week as I DO NOT want to be having to go on Mon except to stock up on bread and milk :rolleyes:

Isn't it funny how the shops are closed for ONE day, yet everyone seems to beeline for xmas eve and stack trolleys up to the brim, yet I normally only 'do' a food shop once every 10 days :rolleyes:
