Meal Plan w/c 17th November 2014

Monday:  Tonight I'm making my favourite soup - Minestrone! I'm adding pinto beans, Vekale, fresh tomatoes, yellow peppers and courgettes. I'll also be using my homemade stock which I made out of the carcass of last weeks chicken.

Tuesday: Dinner will be jalfrezi made with chicken legs and thighs. I'll also be making some sag aloo (spinach and potatoes) and pilau rice to serve alongside it.

Wednesday: We're having a meatless day today, so I'm going to make falafel which we'll have with a colourful Turkish salad and some flat breads.

Thursday: I'm going to make a delicious lasagne (secret ingredient: chicken livers). There's a lot of components - white sauce, fresh pasta, bolognese etc, so I'm going to try and make the sauces the day before as it spreads the work out a bit, but also lets the flavours intensify as well.

Friday: Treat night, so we're going to have lamb koftes with a tahini sauce and a Meze plate with fresh pitta bread. Great start to the weekend!

Saturday: Oily fish night so either rainbow trout or mackerel, which we'll have with some purple potatoes (delicious and in season) and some salty samphire.

Sunday: To round off the week, I'm going to make some roast game birds with lots of vegetables and some cranberry sauce. For dessert I'm going to try and make a semifreddo and the flavours I'm thinking of are rose water and pistachio.
