Today I’m sharing the next post in my ‘What we ate in a week’ series!
The plan with these posts is that I start writing this post the Monday before you read it each month and just update it each night with a photo of what we had for our tea that day. It worked pretty well so far so let’s see if I’m as good this time…
Monday
I was a bit late in from work tonight so Miss Frugal was in charge of tea! She made chicken salad with boiled eggs which we ate served in wraps!
Tuesday
Chicken Fajitas are a regular feature on our weekly menu these days but tonight Mr Frugal made them and they were a bit hotter than we’re used to. They were nice but there was more leftover than usual so I added some to some couscous for lunch tomorrow.
Wednesday
You might have noticed a pattern with this week’s meals so far – they’ve all been cooked by someone other than me as I’m having a super busy week! Tonight is a concoction made by Mr Frugal and added to by Miss Frugal – tortellini (shop bought) and some homemade tomato sauce heated up with some chilli powder, some spinach and some grated cheese.
Thursday
I forgot to take a photo of the meal itself but I did manage to get photos of the chicken part of the meal. It’s cajun chicken which we had with salad and fries.
Friday
So, not a great tea tonight as far as being healthy and wealthy is concerned but we did have a buy one get one free voucher and it’s been a really long week for me personally and I’ve had a few long days which have meant not much time with the kids. It’s not something that happens often but when it does, I really appreciate how everyone gets on with things so a treat was in order tonight!
Saturday
I popped a gammon in the slow cooker this morning so tonight we had a mini roast dinner with mash and veggies. This was my planned Sunday Dinner for tomorrow but we’ve had such a crazy week that I thought we’d have an easier dinner tomorrow so we could get outside and do something together in the afternoon.
Sunday
Today’s lunch turned into a hybrid of spaghetti carbonara and macaroni cheese using some of the gammon leftovers from yesterday’s tea. It was delicious and super quick to make – it was on the table ready to eat less than 20 minutes after I started making it.
