What's Cooking At The Madhouse ? menu plan week 30


We're back, after a ten day trip to Belgium, travelling about and visiting Brussels, Antwerp, Ghent and Brugges. It was nice and we saw lots of interesting places, but it's good to be back home for a rest ! As we had to eat out all the time, we swapped between restaurants, fast-food places and sandwich/salad type meals from the supermarkets, so the kids are off fast food now and want to catch up on my cooking. No arguments from me ! I bet it won't last though ! 

Monday

lunch- I have some leftover cooked chicken to use up and some ebly - I think I'll chop it all up, add some mushrooms and bacon and cream and bingo !

dinner - Spicy brown sugar pork chops with mashed potatoes and grated carrots

Tuesday

lunch-  Chicken cordon bleu with spaghetti & baked tomatoes

dinner- Garlic & herb chicken with rice & salad

Wednesday

lunch- Pork burgers with baked potatoes & beans

dinner- Paprika chicken with rice & ratatouille

Thursday

lunch- BBQ ribs with potato salad (or leftover rice)

dinner- Chicken & veg stir fry with noodles

Friday

lunch- Chicken burgers with cheesy potato bake & salad

dinner - pasta with bacon, onions, mushrooms and either a cream or tomato based sauce

Saturday

lunch- there will probably be leftovers - if not, something from the freezer (chicken? fish? fishfingers? sausages? I'm not actually sure what's in there at the moment !)

dinner- cheese on toast or pizza

Sunday 

lunch- roast potatoes and veg with whatever meat I picked up when shopping yesterday

dinner- a picky salad/sandwich/leftovers/fridge-grazing kind of thing

    1. The kids aren't keen on pork but it goes down a treat with the sugar "sauce". You literally cook the pork chops, add salt, pepper, garlic granules and brown sugar, then finish off cooking until it all melts down into a sauce. Simple !

    1. We are definitely ready for some home cooked food, and some chilling out at home ! The spicy brown sugar pork chops worked well - just add salt, pepper, garlic granules and brown sugar (plus paprika if you want) then toss it until it melts into a sauce. Really easy ! :)
