Our Meal Plan for Week Of 03/02/2014 - £50

Thank goodness it is finally February, I believe that January was the longest and gloomiest month we've had for a long time.  Our Meal Plan for this week is a low faff one as I'm still feeling rough and not up to cooking or eating much.  My children and hubby have been really good at helping out.  My children enjoy cooking and want to help as much as possibly usually anyway, hubby is the one who usually requires persuasion to help with cooking and much prefers sorting out the washing up.

Breakfasts will be toasted homemade wholemeal bread with homemade jam and fruit for afters or porridge with fruit compote, we'll have homemade pancakes and crumpets on the weekend.

Packed lunches will be leftover Seven Vegetable Stew then Root Vegetable and Red Lentil Dhal for my husband and our eldest accompanied by a homemade wholemeal bread roll and a piece of fruit and baked treat for afters.  Packed lunches for the younger two will be Wholemeal Savoury Swirls, which they have made themselves, accompanied by crudites and a piece of fruit and baked treat for afters.

Lunches on the weekend will be Slow Cooker Spicy Root Vegetable Soup with homemade wholemeal bread rolls.

As usual I compared the cost of our shopping, which cost £50.54 from Adsa, using My Supermarket.  Had I shopped elsewhere our groceries would've cost £55.81 from Tesco, £59.77 from Morrisons, £59.93 from Sainsburys.
