Meal Planning Monday - Meals on Foot

This week is a double challenge - I need to make an extra portion and provide meals on foot for an ailing relative AND constantly feed hungry boys.

So here's the plan...

Monday: One Pot Slow Cooked Beef (Gluten Free)

Tuesday: Baked Balsamic Salmon & Boiled Potatoes

Wednesday: Jacket Potatoes, Pizza Snails and Home Made Colslaw

Thursday:  Chicken Gougons and Potato Wedges

Friday: Olympic Buffet 

Saturday:  Hey, Hey Takeaway

Sunday: BBQ (optimistic, but it's been such a long time!!)

These are all things which its easy to make too much of and the Olympic Buffet is more olympic themed rather than size and will give us something to do during the day, rather than ask "is it starting yet" all day long.

If none of the above gets your mouth watering, hop on over to Mrs M's Blog where there's loads more meal plans on show!

Have a fab week!
