Here’s my attempt at a menu plan for Thursday 3rd to Wednesday 9th.
In order to maximise my budgeting, I plan all the food I eat, except I do leave some money for extras during the week.

Thursday: 3/4/08
Notes:  Micro-omelette as I did in this bento (Bento #2).  The oatcakes I refer to are derbyshire oatcakes, they’re really cheap and a local food to my parents’ area.

 Friday: 4/4/08
Notes: Rolls are only bought in my house when needed as I’ve been caught too many times letting them go off.  BP likes good sausages - I’m not fussy, but of course I’ll eat the good ones with him.  I’ll be cooking the flapjacks that afternoon - BP loves them.

Saturday: 5/4/8
Notes:  I always have soup for weekend lunch with fresh bought rolls.  If there’s no leftover fruit salad, I’ll have an orange.   Rainbow trout was bought as a trial - so I’m not sure about it.  I’ll be baking the rainbow cakes today.

Sunday: 6/4/08
Notes: Like to start the day with a large breakfast.  No morning snack because I’m at church.  Couscous salad always made the day after I have the hot couscous.  Always like to have a roast dinner, with all the trimmings.  I love puddings and custard, so I’ll be dumping custard over a rainbow bun.

Monday: 7/4/08
Notes:  My first two snacks are tied into the lunchbox.  Dietician says to maximise things in there.  Hoping to dip the green beans in the chutney part of the splendips.  My pizza recipe here. BP likes garlic bread, too, he has a much bigger appetite than me. 

Tuesday: 8/4/08
Notes:  Chicken wrap from any further leftover roast chicken, or ham if there isn’t any. 

Wednesday: 9/4/08
Notes:  Taking a snack for on the train, because I know I’ll be hungry.  I know my parents always have jelly and cream, and I can bring a pasta and sauce.  I go dancing afterwards, so I like something full-on carbs.
