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)

Dinner at friends
Steak and salsa verde, new potatoes
Brisket, roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese, peas, carrots, YPs. Bakewell tart cheesecake. I'm hosting Mother's Day lunch and those are all my Mum's favourite think.
Falafel, tabbouleh, hummus, stuffed vine leaves
Fish tacos (I use a fish pie mix and fry it off with Cajun seasoning), elote salad

Tonight’s vag tagine was very nice I can confirm!

Vag tagine has really tickled me. I’m childish.
Half of my week is accounted for already but used half baked harvest for the rest.

Saturday: going out for a Thai
Sunday: Cauliflower and broccoli cheese with veggie sausage and roast potatoes
Monday: cream of mushroom soup with sourdough baguette
Tuesday: chipotle black bean and rice quesadilla
Wednesday: out with the running club for a meal
Thursday: spicy peanut noodles with crispy chilli oil

Meal plan this week

Mob kitchen spicy lentil and coconut dal - do not bother making this it's awful and the recipe is wrong
Mob kitchen chicken fajita pilaf
Roast chicken dinner
sausage and roast veg tray bake
Satay chicken
Pie and mash (pie is bought)

Loving purple daisies vagine 😁

Today - bruschetta and wine. I'm in a bad mood.
Rest of week:
Roasted gnocchi something or other.
Stuffed peppers
Thai curry. I believe the recipe says it's yellow, though red paste is involved.
Something from freezer.
Spaghetti puttanesca.

Monday: miso black cod, edamame, kabocha squash braised in dashi

Sausages, mustard mash and leek fritters
Cauliflower tagine

Today: Mediterranean tuna rice bowls
Tues: vegetarian sausage & bean casserole
Wed: Quiche, salad
Thurs: Crispy paprika salmon
Fri: cauliflower broccoli macaroni cheese

This is a fantastic thread and I found it just as I'm trying to be more organised with my meal planning.

Today - Mac and cheese with broccoli and flaked almond crust
T - teriyaki salmon and vegetable kebab skewers with sweet potato wedges
W - out for dinner
T - Jamie Oliver Sicilian butternut squash and chickpea stew
F - pizza and movie night
S - dhal and rice.
S - cod with new potatoes, peas and parsley sauce.

I haven't been on here as haven't been doing proper meal planning but we HAVE had a few different/interesting meals recently. Discoverd the Spice Tailor kits which aren't usually my thing but was pleasantly surprised and have been experimenting with puff pastry tarts!

On that note, this week:
Today: pork mince with lemongrass, ginger, garlic, chilli and noodles (was a bit bland - I think I need to change my lemongrass paste).
Tomorrow: Fresh flash fried tuna with fried rice
Wednesday: Curry (spice tailor) - can't actually remember which one I bought. Will probably do it with butternut and chicken but am toying with going vegetarian and making it butternut and chickpea.
Thursday - probably out
Friday - Roasted veg with hummus and flatbreads
Saturday - Paella (if I haven't used the chicken in the curry) or pea risotto (frozen peas = store cupboard meal).

If weather goes back to being nice, I'll probably go with a pea and leek tart with salad on Saturday instead!

Melty cheese and veg pots with pitta
Roast Turkey, stuffing, roast potatoes and veg
Tuna pasta bake
Chicken Balmoral
Saag paneer and daal

No veggie meal this week, and all food that's either quick and easy or can be cooked at whatever time I like and eaten later, so that I can be sure DD eats with the rest of us - the holidays mean I'm still doing a 40 hour work week... but in 20 hours!

Been away this week back Saturday night
Saturday: something from freezer
Sunday: mushroom and lentil lasagne
Monday: mushroom and kale stroganoff
Tuesday: veggie sausage stew and mash
Wednesday: out with a friend
Thursday: tofu tikka masala

Oh lastqueen tofu tikka masala sounds great, would you mind sharing the recipe please?

• Sweet potato katsu curry
• Randomly bought an onion squash (never tried it before) so probably with gnocchi spinach and creme fraiche. Sounds ok in my head.
• Roasted veg with halloumi and pesto
• Tofu stir fry
• Jacket potatoes and salad
• Quorn escalopes and chips
• Veg risotto (broad bean, pea, courgette, tarragon)

My waistline needs salad, the weather dictates stodge.

"Meal plan" is just a few things I grabbed on way round Waitrose with a whining DS after, to be fair, he'd just completed 6 hours of sports training!

Only for next few days though:

Charred greens and Halloumi flatbreads with honey/lemon/garlic dressing.
Roasted ribeye (Was on INSANE special as about to go out of date! Super excited) with veg and yorkshire pudding
Something with chicken breasts, served with a salad.
Sausages and mash
Gyoza, with noodles and veg (stir fried or salad style, depending on what's left in the fridge by then).

Tofu tikka masala is roughly
Tofu marinated in curry paste and then in the air fryer

Pasta made of blended - onion, chilli, garlic, ginger, tomato paste, Garam masala, whatever other dry spice I like the look of and a table spoon of yoghurt
Then cooked with half a tin of chopped tomatoes and some coconut cream.
Always well received!
