We are trying out some new recipes lately and it’s helping to spice up mealtimes a little. Last week we had Chimichangas which are basically deep fried enchiladas. We will probably make them again but mix up the fillings a bit. Deep fried wraps are a lot nicer than I expected.
We also had a birthday last week and my daughter decided to go for an Indian curry from our local take out restaurant. The kids had Mc Donald’s because they are not curry fans. I had a chicken tikka masala which was really tasty, but it did give me a bad stomach đ
There was also lots of cake!
That’s one birthday down, the next is in 3 weeks, then another 2 weeks later and another 2 weeks after that. Wish me luck!

I am struggling with lunches at the mo. Might give the eggy bread cheese sandwiches a go with the boys.
Hope your feeling better now, meals sound great and agree food is hard work at the moment. Love pizza we will be having that next week
Good idea to try out some new recipes.
So sorry the curry gave you a bad stomach. It sounds like birthday season in your house.
Great meal plan. I love the sound of the Mindful chef meals. x
Lovely meal plan. I’ve got back into the swing of it now. Our meal planning went to pot over the lockdown.
