Could we start a meal plan thread again, so it's not lost in the GC?

Thanks K9.  Feeling a bit better now - I think I was a bit under the weather following the Covid booster and then caught a cold so was laid low for a couple of days.

Thanks ladies for the well wishes. I tried to quote, but my tablet doesn't like to do it, for some reason.

The flare up has died down, but unfortunately the symptoms are still lingering. Basically feeling sick after eating. So, I am going to have to return to a gluten free diet, as these were the symptoms I had a few years back when I first had to tweak my diet. 

I'm normally OK just swapping out the bread and pasta. Occasionally I can't have oats. However, I'm weirdly OK with fake meats (which I don't have often) and wraps. It's very trial and error. The problem normally occurs because I am vegan also, most things have egg in. 

So, I have done a meal plan now, which I'll post it incase it gives anybody inspiration of what to make. It's going to be hit and miss whether I actually want to eat it though. 

Monday (as posted above) was BBQ tofu with ranch and vegetable rice.
Tuesday (as also posted above) stew and dumplings.
Wednesday : Leftover stew and dumplings
Thursday : Roasted veg pasta with basil pesto
Friday: Okonimiyaki with tonkatsu sauce (not sure if I fancy this now)
Saturday : Laksa or Lemongrass meatballs
Sunday: Jerk Lentils or Jerk Chickpea stew

So I didn't end up sticking to the plan as of Friday.
I ended up having laksa on Friday,
Last night houmous and rice cakes and then Kale, Beansprouts and other veg.
Tonight Lentil Sheperdless pie, carrots and cabbage; requested by DD2 as she came for a visit.

Haven't done a meal plan yet for this week - feeling rather slothful, is it the dismal weather making me feel that way? - but today we're having roast beef and onion gravy, Yorkshires, mash, swede and carrots.  Hm lemon cream cups for afters.

Probably the weather, was truly awful here this morning. Today’s dinner sounds yummy 😋

T - Fishcake and mixed green veg
W - Homemade pizza
T - Cheeseboard / picky bits

justkeepswimming - it was very yummy thank you, all eaten and no leftovers.

Still haven't done a meal plan but we had egg, chips & curry sauce yesterday and tonight it's a lamb balti with jacket potato.  Tomorrow will be a pork & apple casserole with mash and butterbeans.

Haven't a scooby for Thursday but Friday will most likely be fish of some kind.

This week :

Haven't had the dhal or jerk lentils, so will carry forward. I'm trying to start The Starch solution at the moment, so alot of my meals will just be individually prepped ingredients to add together as I wish. Also, a bit of a freezer rake as they are both full.

Forgot to post yesterday.

Sat (yesterday) - Seafood with side salad and hm wholemeal bread, all eaten and enjoyed
Sun - Lamb in gravy, Yorkshires (both from freezer), mash and broccoli
Mon - Salad - I was thinking gammon but there's a tin of chopped pork open so will probably use that instead.  There's half a can of mixed beans in chilli sauce that can be added to the plate too.
Tue - Liver, bacon & onion casserole, mash and butter beans
Wed - Cod fishcakes, peas and chips
Thu - Corned beef hash (from freezer) with dumplings
Fri - Some kind of fish meal, possibly battered cod

Soup of the week is tomato & red pepper (to use up the last bits of veg before this week's order comes on Tuesday); there should be enough for 2 lunches for 2.  Will have with p/b crusty rolls that I can do in the AF.
