MEAL PLANNING [WEEK 12]
I’m back on the meal planning wagon. I’ve climbed aboard again for two reasons. One, I’m spending far too much money on what appears to be very little actual food, and secondly, I’m tired of asking people what they want me to order from the supermarket.
It’s usually Gav who does the cooking in the evenings and I’m the one who decides what we’re eating. Today is grocery delivery day [since I can’t drive at the moment whilst I’m waiting for my MRI results] and naturally because I’m writing about the cost of shopping today, I’ve spent more than usual but at least I’ll seem like I’ve cut back next week 😉
Below is what I’ve planned for this week, and our shopping came in at £134.60, listed below.

You’ve got some really lovely meals planned. I always find it fascinating to look through other people’s shopping trolleys. Did you use a plug-in to display what you bought? Thanks for linking up to The Meal Planning Linky, great to have you with us.
Sounds like a delicious meal plan! I love ALL of those dinners, especially a roast chicken! I’m just creating my next few weeks meal plans and you’ve given me some inspiration so thanks! Thanks for linking up also!
