My week went **ts up, the turkey and ham in mushroom sauce still hasn't appeared, getting bumped again!
This week will contain half term, so may be 'flexible' as well.
Thurs: Oh dear! haven't sorted that out yet! Might end up with eggs!
Friday: Lentil/Veggie lasagne
Saturday: DH is employee of the month, going to Loch Fyne with £100 to spend. It's iniquitous, but will enjoy it nonetheless!
Sunday:Tortilla Beany Bake... not tried before, from Veg Socy website
Monday: Spag Bol, reg or vegi
Tues: Burgers Spicy (pork or Vegi Bean) and Potato wedges, trimmings
Wed: cassoulet (Duck and sausages in there. DD away)
Thurs: SOup and Pudding (either P and Ham or chicken), treacle sponge
Friday: Tuna? Not sure how. In the Freezer. Suggestions welcome.
Saturday: Pasta bake, maybe ham and turkey in it?
All suggestions gratefully received.[SIZE=-1]"Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad"[/SIZE]

Hiya Folks :wave: ,
Last week I had a few changes, mainly to use up some stuff in fridge rather than throw it out. STILL trying to use up freezer contents, prob never will as I batch cook & can't resist a bargain....so freezer always seems full.
Here's this weeks grub.....
TODAY: Breaded cod, mash (without butter), veg & white sauce (made with skimmed milk). Trying to cut down.
FRIDAY: Tuna pasta bake with salad.
SATURDAY: H/m lasagne with spicy wedges & salad.
SUNDAY: Low fat chicken tikka masala with rice, naan bread & salad.
MONDAY: Bacon, eggs, beans & waffles.
TUESDAY: Garlic chicken, spuds, veg & pepper sauce or gravy.
WEDNESDAY: Spaghetti bolognese & garlic bread.
THURSDAY: Chicken, peppers, mushrooms, beansprouts, noodles & curry sauce.
Look forward to reading everyone's mealplans.0 -
