Everything went down well last week. The mango chicken and noodle salad (which is actually a hot meal so I wouldn't have called it a salad) was popular, the chicken dishes went down well and the minced beef pies were as popular as they were the first time I made them. All in all, a great week for meals ! I've worked out that on Thursdays, I have a long day at school (until 5.30pm) and I'm too tired to cook anything complicated once I get home so I'll be planning on using up leftovers or quick dishes (or convincing Sophie to cook !) from now on. Here's this week's plan. There seems to be a lot of pork this week, because we cleared out the reduced meat section at the supermarket !
Monday
lunch- canteen for me
Tuesday

dinner- fridge diving !
Well done on a successful week of meals. I hope Sophie helps with the cooking. Great meal plan. x
ReplyDeleteThat is a long day on Thursday, hope Sophie helps with dinners. I like the reduced price section, but only ever manage to grab something on a Sunday, when our supermarket closes early, otherwise during the day the reduction is minimal.
ReplyDeleteI always used to hit the right time at about 5pm on a Saturday but it seems very random now.
DeleteWell done on the reduced bargains, can't beat a nice yellow sticker can you?! x
ReplyDeleteI always love the chance to fill the freezer on the cheap !
