Meal Planner - this week
We don't have visitors this week, but we have a busy few days so - as always - I have pre-planned our meals. The difference this week is that we are having a smaller portion of our main meal the next day for supper. (Once the meal is cooked, I dish up two main meals and two smaller ones.)
I cook everything from scratch, and I'm happy to provide a recipe if there's anything you'd like.
There are our meals this week:
Monday
Roasted salmon fillets with roasted and steamed veg
Salmon is all we needed to buy additionally this week - everything else was either in the food cupboard or veg from the veg box. I used up all the veg leftover from last week's veg box.
Tuesday
Vegetable curry.
We eat a lot of veg. This curry featured red cabbage, a huge spanish onion, garlic and some new potatoes.
Wednesday
Butternut squash risotto with goat's cheese
This sounds posh, but really isn't! Butternut squash cut into really small cubes, rice cooking in stock cube and water, small Goats Cheese in tiny slices put on the top once it's cooked.
Thursday
Quinoa and Chickpea salad
I have a huge packet of Quinoa that needs using. I've had it sat in my cupboard for quite sometime and it's being used up this week.
Friday
Quiche
Our favourite summer recipe, uses whatever we have in mind and feeds us for three meals.
Saturday
Quinoa and mushroom bowl
Man Wonderful will do anything for a mushroom! Just as well, as this is a new recipe and until we've had it I don't know what it'll be like!
Sunday
Galette with cheese and tomato
Just a simple savoury pancake with cheese and tomato as a filling.

Most of that sounds delicious, but I'd replace Quinoa with Freekeh, we prefer it. Also, I detest chickpeas, unless they've been roasted with salt, pepper, garlic and smoked paprika! I wish I liked them, and I will at times make myself eat them, but I'm really not a fan!

Ooh! I've never tried freekeh - it sounds interesting though. And your chickpea recipe sounds like a lovely idea! Xx
