Some of this week's meals

Homemade hamburgers with oven wedges.

Chicken thighs "roasted" in the slow cooker, served with potato puffs, gravy, and steamed carrot, broccoli, corn and peas.

Creamy Lemon Tortellini Bake (link to recipe)
(A new-to-us recipe which I will make again.)
I left out the lemon zest and used leftover chicken instead of bacon (I think it would be awesome with the bacon though!) Everyone liked it - what a miracle - although Noah did pick out the spinach.

Beef stew with rice and steamed Brussels sprouts and broccoli.

Four Cheese and Sausage Stuffed Shells (link to recipe)
(A new-to-us recipe which I will make again.)
I couldn't find pasta shells so I just did the pasta, cheese mixture and tomato mixture in layers. I also halved the recipe as the original serves 12.

Some of this week's meals

Pork chops with roasted diced potatoes, steamed carrots and broccoli, and gravy.

Skinny Chicken Enchiladas (link to recipe)
(A new-to-us recipe which I will make again.)
I only had 10 inch tortillas so I used 4. I found this recipe serves 4 if the enchiladas are all you have. They were delicious! However, the kids didn't think so and acted as if I was poisoning them.

Stuffed pepper soup (link to recipe) out of the freezer as I wasn't in the mood to cook after a day at work.

Bobotie served with rice and steamed carrots and broccoli.

Pam's Lamb stir-fry (frozen product). It was okay, probably won't re-purchase.

Skinless chicken thighs done in the crockpot; steamed broccoli, carrots and corn; risotto rice done with onions, garlic and chicken stock; gravy.

Chicken dinner

Roast chicken thighs (done in the Crockpot), roast potatoes, steamed carrots and broccoli and corn.

Chicken and chips

After a horrible, no-good afternoon I just threw some chicken breasts and chips into the oven and Grant did steamed butternut and onion. Brownies and ice cream for dessert because I NEED COMFORT FOOD TODAY!

Roast chicken dinner with steamed veg and roast potatoes and a little leftover potato hash.

Clearing out the freezer so we had sausages with hash browns and potato croquettes and steamed veg.

Chicken and hash

Potato hash, leftover roast chicken, steamed corn and asparagus.

Chicken dinner

Roast chicken, low fat oven chips, steamed asparagus, broccoli, carrot and baby corn.

Carvery

Because the shippers are coming tomorrow and everything we're sending has been washed and separated from everything we're keeping, we decided to just eat out today. We've been sorting and doing laundry and packing all day and cooking and keeping the kitchen sorted was the last thing on my mind! We went to a carvery.

Chicken dinner

Chicken legs and thighs done in the crockpot, roast potatoes, steamed baby corn, broccoli and carrots, with gravy. Crockpot chocolate sauced pudding for dessert

Meatballs

Ikea meatballs, mash, steamed carrots and Brussels sprouts, gravy.

Sausage loaf

We had sausage loaf (WW recipe) with steamed corn and new potatoes and gravy.

Roast Chicken dinner

We had this at about 4pm and so we just picked a bit for dinner. It was a roasted chicken, potatoes, yorkshire puddings, veg and gravy.

Chicken, chips and veg

We had our casual meal tonight because Phillipa had a play date and you know how fussy kids are so I made the simplest kid friendly meal I could think of. It was good, pan roasted chicken, seasoned curly fries and veg, oh yes and I threw in some gravy too.

Chicken or Toast

You decide, we had a main meal of a roast chicken with all the fixings with our friends at lunch time, but then had toast in the evening, I classify either as qualifying, but would have said the roast was the main meal of the day.
