Soup a success! menu planning is back...

Well just switched off the lentil soup in the slow cooker and it taste yum - next time will put more lentils in than the recipe (I like a thick soup)but very pleased.

Did my Asda order - came to £101.32 with free delivery - got loads of stuff that will last me longer than 2 weeks (ie lentils, soup mix, barley etc) The menu is as follows (in no order) - anything I will be cooking in the slow cooker is marked SC

1 - Beef stew - SC
2 - Goulash - SC
3 - Gammon joint - SC
4 - Gammon fritatas
5 - Gammon and lentil soup - SC
6 - Lasagne
7 - Lasagne (we like lasagne!)
8 - Pasta bake
9 - Macaroni cheese
10 - Sausage casserole - SC
11 - Creamy pork and mushrooms - SC
12 - Egg, beans and chips
13 - Chicken curry
14 - Mince and potatoes
15 - Beef olives
16 - Curried parsnip soup - SC
17 - Chicken broth with mushrooms - SC

As you can see its actually more meals than just 2 weeks by using up leftovers (and might manage to sneak another couple of meals in too) I also intend to make apple flapjacks, scones, rock buns and h/m hummus for snacks.

I also bagged some bargains on ebay

Velvet scarf/wrap (gorgeous colours)

Red padded coat

Total including postage - £18.18. Very pleased with the coat - the picture wasn't great but its a padded jacket from M&S - the picture looked a very bright pink but read the description and it said dark red (problems with camera) so I got it for 99p with £4 postage - lets hope they all fit!
