Seen as though I am listing out everything we’ve grown from
scratch on tomorrow's blog, today I thought I would post the
menu plan for Wednesday to Tuesday. It’s
looking like this:
Wednesday - Spinach
and feta stuffed chicken with jacket potato, broad bean mint and barley salad
Thursday - Chorizo
& broad bean risotto as didn’t have last week
Friday - Hearty
Pasta Soup with homemade crusty bread followed by broad bean and herb potato
cakes with salad if any space left!
Saturday - Lunch - Broad bean and pea soup.
Afternoon -
BBQ @ ours for family. Thoughts are:
Sausages with homemade
redcurrant relish.
Marinated
chicken pieces with homemade coleslaw.
Roasted pepper
and chorizo orzo salad
New potatoes
and sundried tomato salad.
Salad using
radishes and tomatoes.
Homemade
lemonade.
Homemade sun
dried tomato bread.
Mam’s bringing
the desert and the wine!
Sunday - Cauliflower
soup with left overs from BBQ.
To do: Make loaf
of bread for Mon/Tues, make quiche/flapjacks/cake & soup.
Monday – Ham
& Broad bean quiche with salad and new potatoes
Tuesday – Omelette
or jacket potato (kids eat out on Tues)
Time to print this off and stick it on the fridge!
I do have the usual Friday delivery coming from Tesco as I
had no milk with not having a veg box delivery so I needed that plus the other
usual items including ingredients to make the above. The Friday delivery is working out
great. The time is perfect (in between 4
and 5), so I’ve just got home, get the shopping away before I start thinking about
any other jobs, then plenty of time to make tea and enjoy the evening. This is the last delivery of the month as it
is a new budget from Monday.
Your BBQ menu sounds especially good! Enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteThank you - I'm looking forward to it.
DeleteI'm loving the variety in your menu, your children will grow up knowing so much about food and the variety of flavours produced. Well done. Have you kept to budget?
