Octobers first organic box delivery



Now to menu plan!

Main courses
Tomato and courgette bake x 2 (1 for the freezer - lots of tomatoes from the garden))
Jacket potatoes with baked beans - 2 lunches
Steamed shredded cabbage with smoked bacon pieces & remoska baked sausages
Bubble and squeak (I have a large bag of potatoes as well) eggs & bacon rashers
Cream of vegetable soup 8 potions (4 to freeze) with home made bread
Courgette frittata

Puddings
Apple Crumble
Bananas and custard
Fresh fruit salad in apple juice (from cooking apples for crumble)
Baked bananas in honey and orange juice
Trifle - will do 2 days
Apple batter pudding

Hopefully with a bit of padding out that should feed the 3 of us for the next week. I have taken to dishing up a small starter to take the edge of the appetites a bit. Toast and pate, home made blue cheese and garlic focaccia, soup, whatever I have in that needs using up really. Fingers crossed this cunning plan works!

I did the three-course meal thingy last winter, and it worked very well. The starter was usually a homemade soup, but that meant we only needed a much smaller portion of the main course, and we both felt we'd been really deadant having three courses.

Hi Elizabeth!

It really does work doesn't it! we too felt like we were spoiling rather than depriving ourselves. The food that would normally feed just the 2 of us is now enough for 3!
