The spring holidays are drawing to an end and they were fab. We had ten days chilling (and wallpaper stripping !) at home then headed over for the best part of the second week to catch up with my mum, dad, sister and her boyfriend, which was lovely. It was the first time in nine months so it was great to finally see each other again. No more holidays until the summer now though - not good ! Well, there's no food in the house at the moment and Sophie will go shopping while I'm at work tomorrow, so it will all end up with whatever she comes home with ! Here's the plan though. I bought loads of new spice mixes and seasoning sachets to experiment with so fingers crossed they're nice !
Monday
lunch- I'm at the canteen - probably leftover pasta for the kids
Tuesday
lunch- canteen for me - leftovers for the kids
dinner- chicken tacos or fajitas (using one of the sachets from my win - there are all sorts of different things in the box so I'll see what we fancy. Lime chicken fajitas sounds good to me)
Wednesday
lunch- beefburger, couscous & ratatouille
dinner- chicken or beef casserole with baked potatoes and carrots (actually I'll probably put the carrots in the casserole)
Thursday
lunch - meal with a friend for me & Sophie, leftovers for Pierre, canteen for Juliette
dinner- chicken chow mein
Friday
lunch- Sophie can sort out something as I'll be home later (or there may be leftovers to use up)
dinner - cottage pie
Saturday
lunch- sfeha (Jordanian mince-filled pizza or pastry squares) with rice & salsa/tomato salad
dinner- charquican (a dish from Chile - similar to a souped up version of cottage pie actually so I may be able to use up leftovers, if there are any !)
Sunday
lunch- roast chicken, roast potatoes, veg & gravy
lunch- roast chicken, roast potatoes, veg & gravy
dinner- spaghetti carbonara or leftovers
Linking up with the Menu Plan Roundup over at Cats, Kids, Chaos
It sounds like you have had a great couple of weeks. I am so glad you got to see your family. The seasoning sachets sound interesting. You have some great meals planned. The Lime chicken fajitas do sound so good x
