I’ve been quite hit and miss with meal planning since the dc went back to school in September. I’m determined to get back on track this week!

Wed: Bean & veg chilli, rice

Wednesday - veggie sausages, mash, peas
Thursday - chorizo spicy rice with avocado and fried egg
Friday - Nando’s
Saturday - Nigel Slater’s sausage and mustard pasta
Sunday - Moroccan meatballs with couscous

Both DP and I are on holiday this week so a more interesting menu!

is that a quick recipe for spanikopita?

@IDinnaKen Are you asking if I have a quick recipe? It's a bit of a faff but we've done it recently because we have an air fryer. So I make a big batch of individual portions and then freeze a whole whack that we can have another time or ad hoc as we go. Which I wouldn't have bothered with before.

But basically, I sweat onion and leeks for a fairly long time then create a mixture with the cooked onion/leeks, chopped herbs (dill, chives, mint etc), chopped wilted spinach (I use frozen), lots of feta and 1-2 eggs and a bit of seasoning and then roll this up into triangles or whatever shape seems quickest and easiest with ready made filo pastry (I'm planning to try cigars next time for speed!)! Then into the air fryer for 5 minutes or a bit longer for the frozen ones. A dinner size portion is probably 3-4 of the individual ones (so basically, what I can fit in my air fryer).

I based it on the Felicity Cooke "how to make spanakopita" in the Guardian.

This week:

Salmon with noodles and stir fried veg
Mushroom strogonoff
Spinach, ricotta and lemon "no-cook" pasta
"Asian" pork mince and noodle bowls
Baked chicken with mashed potatoes and steamed veg

Butter bean and aubergine stew
Burger, chips and salad
Moroccan cauliflower and couscous
Veggie korma and Bombay potatoes
pizza night

Thanks

*@lastqueenofscotland I see you have a veggie goulash in the plan too . Can I ask if there’s a particular recipe you use? I’m planning on trying this one which I’ve had saved for a while but I haven’t tried it before so I’m open to recommendations?
