My week:

Monday: Glazed Sesame salmon will have it with rice and broccoli
Tuesday: Courgette risotto
Wednesday: Halal cart chicken - the method of making the rice here ain't healthy but it is absolutely delicious
Thursday: Bolognese from the freezer.

I ran out of steam when planning for the remainder of the week so see how it goes. Theres a frozen pizza and a bag of wedges in the freezer so likely how it will go on Friday.

I am free most evenings, I will bring cake and my own bib !:D

Monday (today): attempting a Tuscan Chicken recipe in the slow cooker. If it goes well,
Tuesday: Tuscan Chicken leftovers
Wednesday: Mince and chips
Thursday: Chilli maybe.
Friday: Pizza night
Saturday: payday lunch treat is a wheel of camembert with crusty rolls and chutney. Bottle of wine too. Dinner will be light therefore. I'll make my mind up on Thursday when I'm doing the shopping.
Sunday: Chicken and ham pie

Sunday: Hake, chorizo, haricot beans. Inspired by this post on the picture thread a while back, because it looks incredible.

There's a similar Rick Stein recipe we've made a couple of times, but we used cod.

Hake with chorizo and potatoes (Merluza à la Gallega)

This week will probably go awry this evening as I have a late work meeting but the plan is:

Mon - FFYN (Fend For Yourself Night, i.e. I'm not cooking)
Tue - N'duja, roasted tomato & pepper pasta
Tonight - Baked potatoes with chilli
Thu - Pulled Tandoori chicken, Bombay spuds, spiced roasted broccoli
Fri - Burgers
Sat - Venison steaks
Sun - dunno yet

Could you share the pulled chicken dish? Sounds delicious.

The chicken is from this recipe - www.hwcmagazine.com/recipe/pull-apart-chicken-tandoori-sweet-potato-skins/

Bombay spuds - www.houseandgarden.co.uk/recipe/best-ever-bombay-potatoes. I cube them first and par-boil them for 5 minutes rather than leaving them whole.

Broccoli - http://www.gardenfreshfoodie.com/side-dishes/roasted-indian-cauliflower/. Only with broccoli, obvs! Be warned, it's fiendishly addictive, I've been eating it with everything lately. Still, there are worse things to get addicted to!

For next week I'm thinking:

Saturday: Chicken fajitas
Sunday: Meat, potatoes and veg
Monday: Stir-fry
Tuesday: "Spanish" stew (chicken, chorizo, and butterbeans in a tomato sauce)
Wednesday: Leftover Spanish stew
Thursday: Caramelised pork bowls with rice and broccoli
Friday: Fish, potatoes and veg

I always get a tesco delivery on Wednesdays, and so I've already eaten two dinners, which were

2 chicken burgers, 2 cauliflower veggie grills and tinned spaghetti
beef burger with chips and sausages

and for the rest of the week I'll be having

lasagne, wedges, garlic bread
2 garlic chicken kievs, carrots, peas
2 garlic chicken kievs, wedges, garlic bread
2 chicken burgers, carrots, peas, gravy
pepperoni pizza

I guess I like garlic.

Pizza Day x2 in a row - only sensible way to do it with only two of us, use up the toppings and tomato sauce

Just FYI, passata sauce, grated mozzarella and pepperoni slices all freeze pretty well! It's just the two of us here too, so that's what we do when we make homemade pizza. It's really handy not having to buy all of the ingredients each time.

If we have other bits of meat or veg etc leftover, I tend to just use them for sandwiches.

Next week:

Roast partridge (depending on how my shooting goes!!) with dauphinoise potatoes and winter veg
Pizza - ooni again, have Caputo Nuvola flour to try out
Crispy salmon with noodles and Asian veg
Fish pie
Brisket on the BBQ
Risotto - likely pumpkin and chorizo
The pulled tandoori chicken from this thread is getting given a try too

My wife is not feeling the best so I'm on duty this week, or at least Im going to try. I like to plan, at least the night before, but preferably for the next few days. My big problem is my wife and so are mostly critical of my style/quality. I like to and am good at planning and not not just dinners

Today - Spaghetti bolognaise; almost ready at this stage.
Tuesday - Chicken, either curried with rice and pitta bread plus chutney or roasted with potatoes and brocolli + carrots mashed with sweet potatoes. Must take chicken from freezer now.
Wednesday - Shepherds pie from freezer courtesy of Dunnes Stores as my family like and I wil beef it up with mashed potatoes, carrots and steamed brocolli.
Thursday - hake for my wife and I with either mash or chips and peas and remains of spag bol for son who isnt into fish
Friday- me oven chips and tinned salmon; wife and son will have chicken again either curried or roasted (depending on which we ate on Tuesday) .
Saturday - stew with potatoes, carrots, onions and parsnips. I have to get the diced beef yet (so not like we used have 60 years ago with shin beef) and parsnips. This will be my first try at this at 68 years of age.

I enjoy doing it as Im out of work at the mo and I like to prep stuff first thing in the morning. Best of luck with the cooking you lot.

Just organizing the weeks grocery delivery. Between tuesday tomorrow and the tuesday after (inclusive), we'll be having

meat feast pizza
cheese and ham pizza
cottage pie, veg, and garlic bread x2
chicken burgers, wedges or mash, and veg x2
beef burgers, mash, and veg
sausages, mash, and veg

We always double up on meals, don't want things to go to waste after all. And really just keeping things simple too.
