Well, I said last week that two of the kids were sick, then I promptly came down with the flu so I didn't do much cooking at all last week in the end. It was great for clearing out the freezer though ! I'm still not feeling great but hopefully the antibiotics will be kicking in and making me feel fighting fit soon. This is the plan anyway - we're all on the first week of our school hols so I need to plan lunches and dinners this week and next.
Saturday
lunch - possibly McDonald's or possibly some pies I found in the freezer with mash & veg - I'll see how much energy I have in the morning !
dinner - I have a plateau of Chinese nibbles just begging to be eaten for the grown-ups but the kids can have toasted sandwiches
Sunday
lunch - roast chicken with roast potatoes, veg & gravy
dinner - homemade soup or porridge if anyone's hungry
Monday
lunch - creamy spinach & salmon lasagne
lunch - creamy spinach & salmon lasagne
dinner - curry with rice & coriander naans for the grown-ups, flatbread pizzas for the kids
Tuesday
lunch - Beer Doused Ham Hock with Lentils (which didn't get made last week)

Wednesday

lunch - Chicken Thighs cooked with a shake & bake seasoning bag with veggies & rice or mash

Thursday
