What's Cooking at The Madhouse? menu plan 2019 week #45


We made it through the half term and now we're back home and back to school, slightly delayed as Monday morning will see us heading to hospital to have Pierre's plaster cut off. I'm hating the fact that it's all got so dark now, both for going to work in the morning and for getting home at night - boo ! I'm definitely using the slow cooker from now on as temperatures have dropped big time, so I love the idea of coming home and having a lovely hot meal waiting to serve up. All that's left is to shut the curtains and jump into my pyjamas ! Here's what we're eating this week.

Monday 

lunch - It may end up being a mad dash after the hospital visit, but in theory, chicken & bacon bakes with rice & veg

dinner - slow cooker beef & ale casserole with potatoes and carrots

Tuesday 

dinner - possibly leftovers if the kids didn't finish them at lunchtime - if not, cheese & tomato pasta bake with some sweetcorn added in

Wednesday 

lunch - baked potatoes with cheese & beans and maybe some bacon and onions too, if I'm feeling nice !

dinner - chicken & veggies with noodles & chow mein sauce

Thursday 

dinner - something else in the slow cooker - hmmmm, how about chicken chasseur (with carrots, onions, mushrooms) and rice ?

Friday  

dinner - possibly leftovers, if not beefburgers, mash & beans

Saturday 

lunch - I'll leave it up to the kids - probably a trip to McDonalds, if I know their way of thinking !

dinner - cheese on toast

Sunday 

lunch - roast dinner - probably chicken, roast potatoes and veg, all topped off with lashings of gravy

dinner - sandwiches or chicken soup with the leftovers from lunch

    1. It did go well, but he's a bit concerned about having "uneven legs", where the muscles under his cast have gone all floppy afte not being used for three weeks. They'll get back to normal soon though, hopefully ! lol
