February meal plans (1st-14th)
Sorry about the cheaty back-dating of this one ;) I’ve got several posts in the works re: my new goal to pay off the mortgage etc but am poorly so not getting time / energy to finish them :(
- 01st: (Homemade) Pizza night
- 02nd: Frugal cake-fest 2013
- 03rd: Bangers & mash
- 04th: Poached pollock & chips
- 05th: Beef curry
- 06th: Macaroni cheese
- 07th: Stir fry w/noodles
- 08th: Freezer leftovers day
- 09th: Corned beef hash
- 10th: Chicken, mushroom & leek pie
- 11th: Cabbage masala & egg fried rice
- 12th: Pasta With Honeyed Savoy, Bacon, Carrot & Chilli
- 13th: Moroccan Not-A-Tagine
- 14th: Lasagne
(The chicken for the pie on the 10th was taken from the roast chicken I did last week and froze.)
As you can probably tell, I’m loving the ‘A Girl Called Jack‘ blog at the minute, and hope the recipes are as good as they sound (and as cheap!)

I’m sure this is probably not news to you, but I came across a post about how to make your own veggie stock (and I assume chicken if you add a chicken carcass to the recipe) in a slow-cooker by using water and leftover scraps like onion peels, green bean ends, etc. When I read it I thought, “I wonder if Jem knows about this?” :P The post about it is here if you’re interested!

I’ve not made my own veggie stock before but I do make my own chicken stock. Great idea to use some of those leftover bits!

I’d forgotten all about it! I’m sure they’ll make their way in somewhere, although Izz is not overly keen..
