Following on from Mot's brekkie thread, are you struggling to put together a menu with depleted supplies, or are you enjoying the challenge of making use of what you have in the fridge/ cupboard and freezer?
Mrs Secure went shopping to a few random supermarkets before the lockdown and came back with a very odd selection of items (at that time, it was just what was left on the shelves after panic-buying) like a lone (but HUGE!) turkey drumstick.
That was roasted and made into turkey curry.
We have a bit of bacon left in the fridge, along with a roast-in-the-bag chicken (again, not our choice), six sausages, meatballs, some spuds and a selection of wilting veg.
In the cupboard we have a few tins of beans, some rice, two boxes of cereal, some tins of tuna, a jar of pasta sauce, some lentils and some rice noodles.
In the freezer are pizzas, fish fingers, burgers, fish in breadcrumbs, frozen fruit, meat pies, assorted bits of freezer-burnt fish, lamb shank, a bag of Quorn chunks, an apple pie, a bag of peas and a bag of hash browns.
We have an Asda delivery booked for the 10th.
So my meal plan is:
Sunday: Toad-in-the-hole.
Monday: Roast chicken meal.
Tuesday: Pizza.
Wednesday: Fish fingers and some variety of spud/ hash browns.
Thursday: Meatballs, pasta sauce and rice (no pasta in da house!).
Friday: Burgers and some variety of spud/ hash browns.
