I'm back ! Things got majorly hectic so I didn't even manage to find the time to make a menu plan for the past two weeks. After filling in school reports, I had the end of term meetings for each class (late in from work every night, getting home around 7.30pm so Sophie took over on food duty) then the week after, parent-teacher evenings. On top of that, I've been tracking down a new roofer. He's been and done emergency repairs. Now the insurance need to send an expert and they can do the actual repairs. Pierre's plaster cast has been taken off his arm and he's back to school, after his week off with Covid. Juliette had her Covid booster jab. (Pierre didn't need one as he had Covid.) Things have finally calmed down, so I'm back to preparing a menu plan again. I want to start making some space in the freezer as it's looking pretty full up at the moment !
Monday
lunch- I'm at the canteen, the kids can find something in the fridge
Tuesday
lunch- canteen for me, leftovers for the kids
dinner- chicken & veg with noodles and sweet & sour sauce
Wednesday
lunch- leftovers or chicken burgers & mash
dinner- beef or veal stew in the slow cooker with rice
Thursday
lunch - a meal with friends for me and Sophie can come along
dinner- I have a final meeting so Sophie will probably be on food duty. There's special fried rice in the freezer, with some chicken on the side to pad it out.
Friday
lunch- Sophie can sort out something, omelette maybe?
dinner - cottage pie
Saturday
lunch- maybe a trip to McDonald's or maybe leftovers
dinner- pasta carbonara
Sunday
lunch- roast chicken, roast potatoes, veg & gravy
lunch- roast chicken, roast potatoes, veg & gravy
dinner- I think there will be leftovers to use up. If not, fridge grazing should do it.

You have been busy! I hope things are calming down now and that the you get the proper repairs done on your roof soon.
ReplyDeleteGreat meal plan. All of your meals sound so warming and filling. Just what we need with this rubbish weather x
