It’s that time of the week again for MealPlanningMonday and this week we’ve tried to be as cheap as possible.

Cajun Chicken with Minty New Potatoes

Salmon in Lemon and Dill with Vegetables and Crispy Potatoes

Jacket Potatoes with Prawn Cocktail

Vegetable Pizza

Pizza Express as a special treat 

Tuna Wedge Bake with Hot Bread Rolls

Now all of those meals would taste a lot nicer if the sun could make an appearance but it’s not looking likely.

The aim this week is also to try and comment on a lot more peoples menu’s.

I know I know it’s been a few weeks since I last took part and that is mainly due to various members of the family being ill, both the girls have had chickenpox over the last month and we’ve all had the flu and then last week we were away at Butlins…but now I am back.

As the girls are getting older we are now trying to have meals where we all eat the same. It’s not going to bad and they seem willing to try new things which makes it a lot easier at dinnertime.

So here is this weeks meals

Grilled Salmon with New Potato Salad

Spaghetti Bolognaise with Garlic Bread

Hot Dogs with Chips

Quorn Meatballs with Rice

Fajitas

Tuna Wedge Bake

It’s maybe not the most adventurous menu but most of it the girls have asked for so fingers crossed they eat it all up.

I can’t wait till the salad bits we can actually get out of the garden rather than having to buy it.

I hope you’ve all had a good week and I look forward to seeing what others have planned for the week
