Unfortunately, I then realised I need to pay the next installment for a school trip so here we go again trying to save the shopping budget by eating through the freezer. it needs emptying anyway in time for Christmas!

| Meal Planning Ideas |
So, looking at my list of what is in the black hole I call the freezer, we are on...
Monday
Hairy Dieters Steak and Ale Pie over a Jacket Potato
Tuesday:
Levi Roots Carribean Curry
(I froze this to not waste some chicken and to use the cook in sauce I got for £1 with a coupon!)
Wednesday:
Fish Cakes, Chips and Peas
Thursday:
Meatballs and spaghetti in home made pasta sauce
Friday:
Bangers and Mash
Saturday:
Takeaway
Sunday:
Fish pie made from the Haddock and Salmon lingering in the bottom drawer
So hopefully all I need to buy this week is fresh veg, milk, bread and potatoes. Everything else I should have tucked away. I've saved a small fortune using up baking supplies and dried fruit on packed lunches too.
I'm liking the saving element of this way of meal planning but I feel/fear a really big stock up shop coming.
There's loads more meal plans over At Home With Mrs M - and quite frankly they will be better and more tastier!!
Enjoy your week and let me know how much you save by eating through your stockpile!
