Time once again to link up to Laura @ Organising Junkie for yet another Menu Plan Monday!
This week's menu still includes lots of homemade freezer meals (for this season of life FM really suit our work patterns) and I'm hoping to do some bulk cooking to re-stock the freezer.
Breakfasts for me will be calorie-counted snack boxes, single plain scrambled eggs, yoghurt with added dried fruit and pears. For DH they will be porridge, weetabix or none - but he'll supplement with suppers since he prefers them to breakfast :)
Monday
DH: Vegetable Pasta Dish (Freezer Meal)
Me: Beetroot Soup (FM) with added couscous
Us: Hubby's making grilled gammon steaks with pineapple rings, mushy peas, coleslaw and boiled potatoes
Tuesday
Us: Onion Soup (FM) with leftover boiled potatoes
Us: Tomato-ey Aduki Bean Celery Mince Mix in Tortilla Wraps with coleslaw
Us: Ice-cream and pineapple rings for dessert
Wednesday
Us: Tortillas with our own choice of fillings
Us: Hubby's Pick and Make (using leftover cooked mince)
Us: Semolina (pudding)
I'll prepare a slow-cook beef casserole for tomorrow night (spuds, stewing steak, kidney beans, celery, onions, carrots)
Thursday
DH: Freezer Meal
Me: Omelette with veg
Us: Slow-cooked Beef Casserole (freeze any leftovers beyond those I'll use)
Us: Semolina leftovers with tinned peaches
Friday
DH: Leftover Beef Casserole
Me: I'll be cooking whatever's available at work, for myself and my off-school-charge
DH: Casserole with milk rolls and any other bits and pieces needed to make up a meal (he loves a mish-mash meal)
Me: Leftover Beef Casserole (and any remaining tinned peaches for a dessert)
Us: I'll be making ciabatta plaited bread which will make a lovely fresh supper
Saturday
DH: Ciabatta Bread with FM Soup
Me: Ciabatta with FM Soup
DH: Fresh Homemade Chicken Curry (this will use already cooked and frozen roast chicken) and Rice
I'll be bulk cooking this and freezing portions for future meals, I'll also freeze portions of rice.
Me: Ciabatta Bread with Packet Soup with added chicken (as I can't eat curry)
Sunday
Us: Lunch @ my folks'
Us: Light supper of any remaining ciabatta bread etc.
Next week might include garlic bread, baking up some of my frozen cookie dough, bulk-baking some boiled cakes for the freezer and who knows what else?!
Looking forward to these comforting, thrifty meals!
