Any Daring Bakers.. look for the next post down. !!
This week I remembered to post on Monday.. and after a weekend away as well how organised am I!!
I will be linking to both the gluten free menu swap and Menu Plan Monday.
Unlike our friends over the pond we didn't have any celebrations last week so it was business as usual and I even pretty much stuck to my menu plan
I have decided in future bean stew will not have sausages in. It doesn't need it and just lost my nice expensive gluten free sausages in it..
The chicken noodle soup was a big success so much so we have bought a few more soup bowls from IKEA this weekend so we have plenty to go round.
We swapped Thursday and Friday. I wrote up the lasagna which is here and Friday we had cauliflower cheese with extra bits in it.
This weeks menu
Monday - Pizza because Jon found Sainsburys now do their own gluten free version so got me one to try. Everyone else gets ready made normal ones.
Tuesday - Pork chops and oven roasted vegs.
Wednesday - Lasagna, second one I made last week from the freezer.
(edit - also made Ginger Lemon Girl's corn pudding because I thought the small one would dislike the amount of green. The lasagna had gone rather soggy from being frozen so will try and only do fresh in future. The corn pudding went down very well with the boys, I liked it OK but I have less of a sweet tooth than they do.)
Thursday - veggy soup and cheese scones (edit - post added with scone recipe)
Friday - Moracan style Chicken and apricots with Quinoa (instead of cous cous.)
(edit did on Sunday in the end.. recipe posted here )
I'm not really doing anything with ginger but the soup might end up with some in depending what vegs are left by then. Also I just got a big bag of crystallised ginger to do baking with so that might happen this week if I have time..
Esther! Your weekly menu rocks! I can't wait to see how your Moroccan chicken turns out! I love your blog title! Lilac is one of my favorite colors! Welcome to the gluten-free menu swap! Glad to have you join in!!
ReplyDeleteHi Esther!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the Gluten Free Menu Swap =)
I'm really hoping you'll post the recipe for Cheese Scones. That sounds really good.
I just tried quinoa for the first time a few weeks ago and really liked how it turned out. I bet it will be yummy with the chicken and apricots =)
