    Fri: guacamole w crudites, mediterranean cod w mushroom rice
    Sat: L: tuna salad w baguettes (frozen); D: green salad, roast lamb w pots, flageolet beans (tinned)
    Sun: L: out; D: smoked salmon w cream cheese, leftover lamb roast
    Mon: pork mince fajitas (piadine) w onions, peppers, sweetcorn, cuke and yogurt
    Tue: avocado/mozzarella/tomato salad, smoked mackerel pie w spinach
    Wed: roast pepper salad, chicken curry w rice
    Thu: spinach/rocket/goat cheese salad, lamb chops w aubergine couscous
    Cogito, ergo sum.
