This week’s meal plan {25th January 2016}….
My meal plans are a bit all over the place at the moment as I'm still getting used to Slimming World and learning to adapt meals that I know we all love so that I can continue to enjoy them whilst following the plan. I haven't mastered it just yet so you'll see that on a few nights this week I'm planning to cook two separate meals which I try not to do usually but there are meals I want to try that I know not everyone in the house will enjoy.I'm popping to the shop probably four nights a week at the minute but just to check the reduced section for reduced fruit and veg and I also have … [Read more...]
