I predicted last week that this week would be quieter. Well, luckily, I was right, as we've all been feeling pretty grotty. Just a bad cold, I think, but I did wonder about it being coronavirus at the end of the week. I was about to go and get tested then it all started to shift. I'm coughing less now which means I'm sleeping better and finally starting to feel human again. And my nose has stopped running which is fabulous as it's so annoying when you're wearing a mask all day and can't keep blowing your nose ! I've just checked the plan and the only thing I didn't make was cauliflower cheese, so that can go back on this week's plan, and cottage pie turned into chilli con carne. I figured something spicy might help shift the cold or at least clear out my nose ! Here's this week's plan.
Monday
lunch- leftovers or fridge grazing - I will arrive home just about as Pierre is heading back to school and Juliette is eating at the canteen.
Tuesday
dinner- I have a meeting so I'll get home later than usual, so something quick and simple. Spaghetti bolognese should do it. And maybe I can convince Pierre to make some more of his garlic bread. He had a thing for it over the summer and loved crushing the garlic, mixing it into the butter then slathering it all over bread.
Wednesday
lunch- Beefburgers and pasta. I'll use up some of the tomatoes on the side as they're getting decidedly squishy - either just chopped up or maybe fried, alongside the burgers.
dinner- Fish and rice. There may be some leftover cauliflower cheese to use up. If not, green beans.
Thursday
dinner- something based on Cheesy Chicken & Yellow Rice
Friday
dinner - Brown Sugar & Garlic Baked Pork Chops with potato chunks & carrots
Saturday
lunch- McDonald's probably or whatever's in the fridge
dinner- depends on what I picked up when I went shopping but I'm thinking pizza
Sunday
lunch- hmmm how about a roast chicken dinner ? sounds good to me - but again, it depends on what I ppicked up at the supermarket yesterday

dinner- toast? or maybe even a cheeky fishfinger sandwich?
Ahh! I am glad you had a quieter week, shame about the cold. I'm glad you're feeling better now.
ReplyDeleteGreat meal plan. The pork chops sound so good x
