We managed to stick to last week’s meal plan pretty well. We swapped a couple of days meals around because it fitted better with Graham’s shifts, and had chips instead of mash with the beef casserole but all in all, we had what we said we were going to have, except for Sunday when we were out for longer than expected so didn’t get round to having a roast dinner. Because I’d taken the pork out of the freezer, we decided to add that to this week’s plan. Planning our meals really did make life a lot easier, and by using my slow cooker and halogen oven I’ve managed to save time. I bung what I can in the slow cooker in the morning and finish off the rest in the halogen.

Here is this week’s plan:

Monday – Pork roast dinner

Tuesday – Fray Bentos Pie, mashed potato and vegetables

Wednesday – Lasagne and garlic bread

Thursday – Corned beef hash and beans

Friday – Chicken, bacon and leek in cheesy sauce and spaghetti

Saturday – Sausage casserole, mashed potato and vegetables

Sunday – Baked potatoes with chilli and salad
