Meal Planning Monday

Oh yes, it's that time of the week again! A week comes around so fast. Last week, we had all the meals as planned, apart from a change of accompaniment to the Sausages in Onion Gravy -  homemade chips in the oven instead of mash, the kids had peas and we had broccoli. Everything went down well - especially the roasted veggie pasta I made on Saturday evening, which elicited the question from Monkey of whether we could have it again and if so, when - always a good sign!

And we had a fabulous time at Parkers Arms yesterday for Mother's Day lunch. Thanks so much to Stosie and the team for a lovely meal.

Enough of that, this post is about my plan for this week, which I managed to do on Saturday when I was lucky a bit of peace and quiet.

So here we go for the week commencing 4th April.

Monday - Lentil and Lamb Moussaka
Tuesday - Paprika Chicken
Wednesday - Salmon with Leeks and Parsnip Mash
Thursday - Pizza Pinwheels for the kids, Ricotta, Tomato & Spinach Frittata for us
Friday - Beef and Bean Crumble
Saturday - Pancetta, Mushroom and Leek Risotto
Sunday - We're away so I won't be cooking. 

A lot more balanced this week - something different every day - and no curries! Instead, it seems to have a more Italian feel with a frittata, a risotto, and the pizza pinwheels.
