There was a time when I hated taking leftovers for work lunches.
Now? They’re my best friend. Did anyone say time-poor?
Monday: Spaghetti Carbonara
My favourite creamy, naughty pleasure. And the kids LOVE it.

Tuesday: Sweet and Sour Chicken
I can usually get my fussy girl to eat this, as, yes, it’s sweet.

Wednesday: Warm Tuna, Mango and Rice Noodle Salad
Love an Asian salad, and because it’s tuna it’s cheap and easy if you haven’t had time to go for fresh ingredients.

Thursday: Perfect Roast Beef
Yummmm. Roast beef sandwiches with mustard or horseradish. Almost as great as the original roast dinner.

Friday: Pumpkin Soup with Cheese Toasties
I feel like I’m being healthy eating a vegetable soup. And my kids will eat this. Bonus.

Do you have any family favourites you’d like to share?

When I was single and share-housing I used to plan my meals to provide for several dinners and lunches. Easy, healthy options that also freeze well include: any kind of soup or casserole, stir fries and curries, bolognaise sauce that you can use with pasta, baked potatoes etc, American style chilli ( as is or use in Mexican etc), marinated and bbq'd chicken breast, for salads, sandwiches or with veggies...., so many options!
