£27 Make Ahead Menu Plan

The dust-sheets are gone and it’s time to fill the freezer again.

But this month I’m finding it difficult to find the time (and – ok I admit! – the inclination) to spend a whole day cooking, so I’m going for Once a Week Cooking. I’ll tell you more tomorrow.

And to make things more interesting, we’re back to budgeting. Things were somewhat chaotic in the summer with lots of people visiting and me working more hours, but now it’s time to get back to routine.

So this week’s menu costs £27 for five make ahead meals for four.
