Menu Plan Monday - March 2nd

Well, Autumn is here (in Australia!) and the weather seems to have cooled down a little already! We've had gorgeous weather the last couple of days. It's definately 'picnic at the lake' weather. We did that on Saturday, and had slow-cooked lamb shanks Sunday instead of Saturday (yum!!!), so roast beef is back on the menu for next Sunday! (Third time lucky!)

I've decided to add lunch ideas, as I have to plan it in my head anyway... we're not really 'toasted cheese sandwich' people, so I have to plan ahead, at least in a loose way. And when my husband's working afternoon shift, we have our main meal at lunch. Here's my plan... for more ideas for your menu this week, check out Menu Plan Monday on orgjunkie.com!
