http://www.recipelink.com/mf/31/25567 If you are bored and want more pesto ideas.
I find it hard to find cheap lunches that are good for me. I shouldnt really have cheese or bread. Plus it's like a rugby scrum to use the microwaves at work, you can spend half your lunchtime in the queue!
monday & tuesday I work from home so zero spend by default. And i've planned the next 3 days as follows, soup, soup and more soup.Proud To Be Dealing With My Debts.Aims for April:Lunch Log Challenge-Fill in working tax/child credit forms-Switch current account-Use savings to pay off debt-Switch to using childcare vouchers-Figure out why tax code changed I now earn less despite a pay rise. :mad:0 -
Ive been awful this week so far. I leave the house with good intentions and then when it comes to lunchtime my HM food doesnt seem quite as appetising.
