One of my lovely readers asked about our meal planning, so this is how we do it:
1. I take an inventory of the fresh foods we want to use first.
2. I plan our meals based on these, with as few items from the shop as possible.
3. I plan which days we will eat which meal.
4. I shop for anything we need in one trip.
So here is our meal plan for this week, and why.
1. I have three different types of cabbage, lots of mushrooms and some onions that need using first.
Monday

Plenty of lentils in the store cupboard, swede and spuds to make the mash topping.
