Last weeks meal plan was a bit of a fail… Partly because I felt rough and hubs was in hospital for a minor operation. So, this week must be better! O is back at school today, which he isn’t particularly pleased about, but it will be good to get some routine back to our days. I just hope that the return to school doesn’t upset the later get-ups we’ve been having recently!
Today, it’s my best friends birthday and she’s off work, so she’s coming to us for the afternoon for a birthday tea. O loves to spend time with his Auntie and he’ll be super surprised that she’ll be there to pick him up from school too! The rest of the week is a pretty straightforward week, with nothing much going on other than a few mundane appointments through the week. Not forgetting my next pregnancy massage… Yay!
So, my plan for this week is:
Monday – Special Birthday Tea
Tuesday – Italian Bean Stew
Wednesday – Chicken Chow Mein (because I forgot to buy chicken last week…)
Thursday – Diet Cola Chicken with vegetables
Friday – Beef stew
Saturday – Pasta Bolognese
As always, we’re linking up to the Meal Planning Monday linky hosted by At Home With Mrs M.
Mind if I join you for dinner on Thursday? I’ve never had diet coke chicken…..
Ahh we make dinner with coke too! My mum has a (rather popular amongst family and friends) coca-cola ham that she makes – it’s epic! Some wonderful suggestions and just like your cake recipe, I’ll be giving it a go! H 🙂
This sounds like a lovely week, I’ve never trued cola chicken. Italian bean stew sounds good x
Happy Birthday to your friend…
I’ve never had Diet Cola Chicken either…One of those things I keep meaning to try but never get around to making x
I hope you all really enjoy your special birthday dinner 😀 The rest of the weeks food sounds great too.
Happy birthday to ur friend.
I love reading meal planning posts to give me inspiration I really need to start meal planning once again.
What great recipes! I didn’t know about this link up so definitely going to join in as we always post our meal plans on a Monday too! X
We plan every week too. I couldn’t cope otherwise! Enjoy your birthday meal.
Oh i hope you enjoy that pregnancy massage. It’s nice to get some routine back to you lives. Your week sounds super yummy. I have started to meal plan again this week and popped ours on the blog. I find I’m much likely to stick to it if I have blogged it. Have a good week.
I am loving the sound of diet cola chicken, I need to be much braver than I am and try this x
Hope you enjoyed the special birthday tea today! 🙂

with 6 kids all wanting different things I think a meal plan would be a great idea in this house
Hoping you and hubby are feeling better and hope this week the plan will go ahead with no issues. I love meal planning, I did mine on sunday
What does special Birthday tea involve? Tell your bestie that I say happy birthday and I hope that she has a good one!
Some lovely meals you are having. Hope you had a lovely birthday
Enjoy the special afternoon tea!
Gosh this has made me feel super hungry!! Lovely range of meals.
We need to start planning meals properly, as it saves time and money! I love the sound of diet coke chicken, I’ve heard it’s lovely x
Yummy meals once again hun! I’ve heard great things about cooking with cola, i’ll have to try it! x
I’m coming round on Thursday and Friday! Set me a place! x
Great meal plan. I need to start doing this especially while on SW! I need to be a lot more organised and I bet it saves on food shopping too, less waste!
This is a lovely meal plan you have this week. I meal plan too and find it helps simplify life so much
Mmm Diet Cola Chicken – I miss that since going vegan, so so yummy 🙂
