Meal Planning 2014 - Week 4

Monday

Breakfast yogurt


Lunch leftover pasta bake


Dinner Late home after gym: Slimming World Vietnamese chicken and noodle stir fry




Tuesday

Breakfast yogurt or porridge and fruit


Lunch pasta


Dinner Slimming World sticky pork with orange and baby spinach for me; chicken in piri piri breadcrumbs from the local butcher for my boyfriend. Note to self: cook extra pork for tomorrow.



Wednesday

Breakfast yogurt or porridge and fruit


Lunch pork and bbq sauce sandwich


Dinner Home late - after work drinks with my new colleagues from the company I am joining next month. Not sure what time I will get home so I will either get something on the way home or have pasta when I get in.



Thursday

Breakfast yogurt


Lunch chicken and pesto soft cheese sandwich


Dinner Thai fish curry from Weightwatchers book of recipes p.122 for me (as I need to use up the coconut milk from last week), chicken curry for my boyfriend




Friday

Breakfast yogurt


Lunch out with work colleagues for a farewell lunch before I leave the company


Dinner burger and chips for the other half and fish in breadcrumbs for me




Saturday

Breakfast yogurt


Lunch posh cheese on toast - basically goat's cheese on baguette


Dinner peppered sea bass with saffron mash from Weightwatchers book of recipes p.130 for me and my boyfriend's mum; sausages for him. For dessert: mini Yorkshire curd tarts from Weightwatchers book of recipes p.148 and mini treacle tarts from this recipe
