Saturday - no idea. Depends who is at home, but likely to be something easy like M&S quiche and salad
Sunday - Jamaican-esque veggie curry plus rice and peas
Monday - roasted vege and cheese pie

Not thought beyond that yet and need to do a food order.

Mummy - how do you do your Chinese veg?

What veg do you use, Mummy?

I've changed my mind for tonight. Am full of cold so am going to make a big pan of soup - I've got leeks, carrots, potatoes, lentils, split peas and all sorts of wine, spices, various herbs. I've also got some veggie hotdog sausages, so might try to make a sort of thick, Germanic style one.
