Meal Planning Monday

With the colder weather comes filling, warming foods. I can't wait to have the slow cooker on a lot more now to make some soups, casseroles and chilli! It's making an appearance this week on Thursday and Friday but it has been packed away a while, the poor thing!




The planner this week... 

Monday - Toad in the hole, mash and peas.
Tuesday - Hunters chicken (chicken, cheese and bacon and bbq sauce) with wedges and veg.
Wednesday - Pizza and Salad (child free and we have one to review).
Thursday - Slow cooked chilli con carne with jacket potatoes (adding in some Heinz FIVE Beanz too)
Friday - Chicken Tikka Masala and poppadoms.

 Next weekend the Mini Mes are off to their dads house. We will keep that free as no doubt we will be out and about catching up with friends and family or eating out.


What's on your menu this week? 
Do you cook differently for the Autumn and Winter months?



I'm linking this over with At Home With Mrs M.

  7. I definitely cook differently in the cooler weather, lots more stews, hearty dishes with huge piles of mash, casseroles and cobblers and roast dinners with all the trimmings.
