Last week we pretty much stayed on plan, until the weekend. We were going to have spaghetti bolognese but I forgot to get the mince out of the freezer. I was going to do sausage and chips for an easy tea but then we decided to treat ourselves to a night off and have a takeaway. This kids had pizza and Graham and I ordered an Indian after they had gone to bed. We haven’t done that in ages, and it was really nice to have something to eat without the kids around – we always sit and eat together at the table. We ended up having the bolognese on Sunday instead.

Here is this week’s plan:

Monday: Sausage, mash and veg

Tuesday: Beans on toast (kids eat at after school club)

Wednesday:  Slow cooker kebab and chips

Thursday: Roast dinner

Friday:   Chicken chow mein

Saturday: Butter chicken and rice

Sunday: Pie, mashed potato and veg
