Leaving a "joker day" in my weekly menu plan on Fridays, to give some leeway for clearing out the fridge and using up the leftovers, is definitely a good idea as it avoids relisting the meals that didn't get made, so that will be a regular feature from now on. A few things got swapped over between this week and last week, so you may have already spotted a couple of the recipes in this week's plan going live last week.
Saturday
lunch - it's that time of week again ... McDonald's !
dinner - boiled potatoes, salad & smoked haddock
Sunday
lunch - this week, Madhouse Daddy is out all day being one of the official drivers for the 4 Jours de Dunkerque bike race (which means whizzing around the course in one of the official cars, transporting VIPs, right behind the cyclists) so I gave the kids free reign to choose what they wanted to eat. They opted for ... kebabs from the kebab shop ! Aaggghhh ! We hardly ever eat them (about 1 or 2 a year if that) so they see it as a big treat. I'd definitely rather be tucking into a Sunday roast so I might have to see if I can change their minds !
dinner - homemade soup of some description, depending on what's in the cupboards/fridge
Monday
dinner - chilli con carne & rice
dinner - chilli con carne & rice
Tuesday

Thursday

Friday

Friday

Good luck with changing the kids minds about the kebabs. The only time I eat a kebab is when I'm on my way home from a night out. lol
ReplyDeleteI love the sound of Wednesday's stew. Yum, yum x
I love chilli con carne and the spicy fish sounds yummy! Hope you have a good week and thank you for joining in with #MealPlanningMonday x
ReplyDeleteI love a kebab...as long as it's grilled chicken. I'm a bit scared of the "real" kebab meat! That Sudanese dish sounds lush.
ReplyDeleteHere in France, the doner kebabs are poultry as standard. I relented and let them have their way and it was actually very nice - and it was packed so loads of people must have kebabs for Sunday lunch !
