Are we all enjoying the time between Christmas and New Year? It's that strange little bubble of time where I don't have a clue what day it is. There’s no routine, no alarms but it is nice to take things slowly. We’re still very much in Christmas mode until Friday and then apparently we’re meant to click our fingers and return to normal. New year, new routine, sensible meals and all that but I’m not ready. I think sensible eating can wait until the 5th. There’s no rush, and I refuse to spend the first few days of January being grumpy over healthy food! Hehehe
I didn't do a meal plan last week, it was all about our Christmas dinner. Since then we have eaten leftovers, picky bits out of the fridge and nothing much else. It was perfect! We still have lots of Christmas snacks to keep us going this week and plenty of chocolate to eat so all is good!
On the menu this week we have:
Monday - Breakfast for tea!
Sausages, bacon, eggs, black pudding, mushrooms, hash browns, baked beans, tomatoes and toast.
Tuesday - Corned beef hash!
A nice and hearty meal. I will add mushrooms because I add mushrooms to pretty much everything and we’ll have it with baked beans because that’s just how we like it.
Wednesday - Party food and snacky food or a meal out.
New Year’s Eve food is a bit up in the air. Sometimes we plan it properly and sometimes we decide at the last minute, this year is a last minute thing. It could be pizza, sausage rolls, sandwiches and lots of snacky bits spread out on the table or we might go out for a meal if we feel like it. We haven’t decided yet.
Thursday - A roast dinner of some sort!
Starting the new year with a roast dinner feels like the right thing to do. We have roast potatoes, stuffing and some veg in the freezer.
Friday - Fish, chips and mushy peas.
Might be home made or it might be from the fish and chip shop.
Saturday - Home made pizza.
I will buy ready made dough and then we will just add our own toppings. I will have BBQ sauce, smoky sausage, mushrooms, onions and a little bit of cheese.
Sunday - No idea!
I have no idea what we will have on Sunday. I think it’s going to be a fend for yourself day. Leftovers, toast, freezer bits or whatever people fancy. By then the fridge will probably be looking empty and it will be time to get a food shop delivered.
What are you eating this week?
