Well what a triumph last week was. I managed to make everything in my menu plan (Menu Plans – Back on the Agenda), was super organised with the family cooking and we had a great dinner every night!
As expected there were some highs and lows. The highs (for me anyway, the family may disagree) were the Pasta with Broccoli and Tomatoes and Salt and Pepper Squid. The low was the Cinnamon Tea Cake which just didn’t seem to work so I’ll be tweaking that one.
So following on from this success, menu planning is now well and truly on the agenda. Here’s my plan for this week, which is a bit of an unusual week as I’m going out of town (visiting my sister) for a couple of nights. There are plenty of frozen leftovers to fill the gaps while I’m gone, and I’m sure a ‘Daddy’s treat’ of some description will make its way onto the table. We’re also moving into warmer weather so salads are starting to find their way back onto the menu.

Wednesday – Hoisin Pork & Noodle Stir Fry
Thursday – Baked fish with Fennel, Tomato and Olives
