Weekly meals plan

[kiwi]

We are eating stuff that had started to defrost when I discovered the small freezer had been turned off so, mixed with a random veg box delivery:

Unidentified stew with extra green beans
Mackerel fishcakes with chermoula and bulghar wheat
Risotto stuffed courgette
Tofu noodle salad
Something to use up excess new potatoes

[Disco]

I might be doing similar soon as there is a minor icemonster disturbing me freezer seal. I've picked the coldest day this week and have a big polystyrene box to hold the contents with ice packs while I hairdry the ice off.
