Menu Plan Monday - 12th January

Well, last week's menu didn't happen exactly as planned - with a sick child to cook for, the orange chicken was changed to a slow-cooked chicken broth, but that's okay, because now I have lots of yummy stock in the freezer! And the chicken was chopped up and used in a couple of meals, including a Thai green curry & coconut soup (one of my favourite leftover chicken recipes!) - recipe will be posted this week. It's amazing how far a chicken can be stretched - I can usually get 3 meals out of one.

I still have plenty of bok choy and silverbeet - they're getting put into lots of meals - quiches, soups, creamed chicken & rice, fried rice, stir fry veges - you name it! So far no one's complained.

Menu for this week:

Monday: (leftovers) Leftover Thai curry chicken soup & rice; fried rice with lamb (from leftover lamb chops).

Tuesday: (seafood) Tuna mornay (dairy free) with rice.

Wednesday: (vege) Raw pasta sauce on raw zucchini strips, with salad.

Thursday: (meat) Beef Ragout & salad.

Friday: (fish) Grilled fish with almonds, baked potatoes, salad.

Saturday: (vege) Quiche with whatever veges are left!

Sunday: (meat) Crockpot orange chicken & sweet potatoes (try again!) & salad (for a potluck dinner).

I love to bake bread and do that a few times a week - a delicious recipe for Challah will be posted soon!
