Menu Plan Monday - 17 March 2008
Welcome back to Menu Plan Monday. I’ve been on hiatus due to my wonderful Mother-in-law who’s been cooking for us.
The plan for this week is:
Monday - Lasagne
Tuesday - Grilled Fish & salad
Wednesday - Apricot Chicken with mashed potato and steamed vegetables
Thursday - Sausage Casserole
Friday - Mini Hot Dogs
Saturday - Fried Rice
Sunday - Scrambled Eggs
For lunches this week we have: leftover lasagne, apricot chicken, sausage casserole and fried rice. Also potato & kumera salad, cold meat and salad sandwiches and tuna and sweetcorn sandwiches.
This week I’ll share my lasagne recipe. It’s really quite simple - mostly because I use the same base as for my Spaghetti Bolognaise. So as we had spaghetti bolognaise for dinner last week, I made a double batch of sauce so the hard part of the lasagne is already in the freezer.
As for the “white sauce”:
Mix together 500g Cottage Cheese (or 250g Cottage Cheese and 250g Ricotta Cheese), 1/2 cup gratecd parmesan cheese and a cup of grated mozarella cheese (or half/have mozarella and tasty) and one egg.
Layer spaghetti bolognaise sauce, white sauce and pre-made lasagne sheets in a lasagne tray. Top with extra cheese and bake at approx 180 for 30mins.

My wondrous 5 week menu plan has been taken off the fridge door and tossed into a corner. Hubby took one look at it and said, “we’re not cooking any of that s**t, it’s way too hot to cook anything.” so I served up a couple of cold meals and the next day he was asking for lemon chicken or a roast and I reminded him that it was too hot to cook……………
(We had the lemon chicken after my temper cooled a bit)
I made mushroom pasta! It was really easy! Although next time I might add some bacon into.
Tuesday - i have no idea yet what I am going to do
Wednesday - going to a friend’s house
