Tell me what delicious food you have in your meal plans this week

I am bored of the same rotation of meals that I keep cooking and need some inspiration. I know this topic is done to death, but most of the threads when I searched were mid-winter and so possibly not quite the same as what people are cooking now.

We aren't particularly fussy, although we don't eat too much meat and DS2 is lactose intolerant (plenty of dairy/lactose free alternatives available though so most recipes can be adapted). The biggest problem we have is time - DH and I work FT and our 3 DC (who are 13, 11 and 9) do lots of activities like football, rugby, hockey, wind band, orchestra, piano lessons, Brownies, swimming etc so food prep needs to be either very quick or something that can be put in the slow cooker in the morning.

This week's meal plan was:
M - Veggie burgers and wedges with peas
T - Spaghetti Bolognese with crusty bread and salad
W - Falafels with couscous, hummus and salad
Th - Fajitas with corn on the cob and salad
F - Spicy sausage pasta with broccoli
S - Korma with rice and nan bread and cauliflower
Su - Spanish Tortilla with crusty bread and salad

Now your turn!

spaggybollocks Grin I'm running along your lines although my baby is now 7 years old Smile

Working and sorting dinner is so tiring for me, we don't have dessert:

My easy dinner is oven cooked in the bag smoked haddock with fried potatoes and asparagus (in the same wok, asparagus last)

spinach and feta frittata is easy with coleslaw. With fajitas we wouldn't need the corn and salad, just a couple of wraps each.

We've had-

Pulled pork with wedges and roast sweet corn
Hairy bikers chicken and chorizo veg bake (delicious but you need to add oil!)
Lasagne

Had a BBQ too and last night out all day so fish and chips!
