Meal Planning Monday; 11th March 2013

Happy Monday everyone! I hope any mummy reader's had a lovely day yesterday and were thoroughly treated :) Bubbah treated me to an hour lie in and lovely cuddles before he bit my chin!

So moving went quite well, I managed to unpack everything bar a massive bag of DVDs and put it all away within the first half of the week (spending about an hour last Sunday making the living room area suitable for Bubbah to be unleashed into the next morning) and thankfully Bubbah settled in very well indeed; even sleeping through a couple of nights which is a extremely rare event!

Halfway through unpacking

We had a busy week last week with Bubbah's jabs (whereupon he screamed for ten minutes and could be heard in the waiting room), unpacking and general sort out and various visiting around to family, friends and playgroup. Bubbah and I have also managed to come down with a horrible cold.

Finally organised!

That said, our meal plan went pretty much, well, to plan! Toad in the hole was replaced by sausage casserole but that was the only swap about. I also managed to make some cupcakes  and it'll be interesting to see if they've lasted the weekend!


Our meal plan this week is more of the same with lots of lovely warming food that requires little effort and can build a bit of a stock pile in the freezer we share with hubby's parents. I'm also planning on baking MORE cakes at some point during the week, possibly Monday as I'm visiting my dad and staying for dinner to give my step-mum a mother's day card from Bubbah.


This week, our meal plan consists of;

• mac n cheese (again!) with various veg thrown in for a lovely health kick
• home made pizza with curly fries and garlic bread (and salad for hubby)
• chicken casserole or pasta bake, depending on mood
• some sort of mince dish, perhaps beef rissoles or spag bol for me and Bubbah
• dinner at dad's so hubby will have to dig out some mac n cheese from the freezer or join his parent's meal for the night
• steak casserole for me and Bubbah
• veg soup twice in the week for hubby's fast days

And that is our week! What's everyone else got planned? If you're stuck for inspiration head on over to Mrs M and see what everyone else has planned for their meal plans this week.
