This week’s meal plan: returning to normal

Posted by on Tuesday 12 April 2011 in weekly meal plans | 2 comments

So last week was pretty chaotic – but by and large, I did avoid resorting to junk food — by missing dinner just about every night. I underestimated how long I’d be at the theatre each night and was rarely home before midnight – so I was grateful that I’d planned decent sized lunches! The show went surprisingly well – after three less than promising dress/tech rehearsals, we and the kids were all really thrown when they did a stellar job on opening night. We had lots of good audience feedback too, hurrah. :)

Anyway, this week, we’re back to normal – actually better than normal since my classes are cancelled over Easter – so hopefully we’ll stick to our plan!

Monday lunch: toast & cheese
Monday dinner: pasta carbonara

Tuesday lunch: bread & hummus, and pickles
Tuesday dinner: sweet chilli turkey & veg stirfry with noodles

Wednesday lunch: sandwiches
Wednesday dinner: homemade pizza

Thursday lunch: leftovers from either lunch or dinner on Tuesday
Thursday dinner: roast lamb with green beans & carrots

Friday lunch: egg mayo ploughman’s salad thing
Friday dinner: chicken enchiladas with salad

    Do you not eat breakfast Louisa?

    Oh I do! I eat silly breakfast cereal most days though so it doesn’t need planning — except for buying said cereal in bulk when it’s on offer.
