New year new meal planning thread

[lastqueenofscotland]

Looks like the other one may have dropped off?
Getting my arse back in gear
Tomorrow: Christmas dinner (Christmas for me was cancelled for covid)
Saturday: picky bits/leftovers
Sunday: jacket spuds with leftover chilli
Monday: borlotti bean shepherds pie
Tuesday: mushroom and leek risotto
Wednesday: satay noodle stirfry
Thursday: DP sorts

Weekend of birthday celebrations for me, Sister, Husband and best friend.

Friday - Thai green prawn curry, Thai fish cakes
Saturday - I'm out with friends at Six by Nico 'Best of 2021' can't wait!
Sunday - breakfast out, roast lunch at home with family
Monday - Chinese beef and mushroom
Tuesday and Wednesday I'm away with work (in Mexico so I'm looking forward to that food wise!)
Thursday - sausage and apple tray bake

As a bit of “fun” I thought for the next few weeks I’d rotate through all the veggie/vegan blogs I look at and get all my recepies from one and pick a different one each week.
Using oh my veggies this week

Tomorrow: mozzarella and rocket pesto paninis
Saturday: vegetable pasta bake
Sunday: broccoli cheese pie
Monday: teriyaki chickpea stirfry
Tuesday: tikka masalas tofu
Wednesday: French bread pizza
Thursday: DP can do and pick his own source!

Happy birthday to everyone!

That’s a great idea @lastqueenofscotland I might do the same. Just got another positive covid test which means I have to order food to be delivered which is definitely not making me excited to meal plan
