Menu Plan Monday {Noodles and Pasta}

Monday again and time for my menu plan; it's mainly food from the cupboards and freezer {again} this week; I'm finding doing a 'big' monthly shop and then a weekly fresh food shop, works well for our family.
I have tons of pasta in my pantry so three of our meals are based on that.

Monday: Steak Pie, New Potatoes, Broccoli, Carrots
Tuesday: Tuna Pasta Bake
Wednesday: Noodles with Sweet Chilli Chicken {similar to this recipe}
Thursday: Jacket Potatoes, Veggie Pizza and Salad
Friday: Pasta and Tomato Sauce with Ciabatta
Saturday: Leftovers or eggs
Sunday: At parents for dinner {Yay!}

What's on your menu this week?

PS; this has been my most consistant run at menu planning and I'm liking it; it saves so much time and so much money.

  2. It does save time and money! We hadn't made a menu for a while until recently, when we decided to cook for the week. (We got most things done yesterday, as I explain in my blog post today.) There are a lot of bananas on our menu this week.

    The steak pie on your menu sounds interesting - how do you make it? I'm familiar with meat pies but I've never heard of steak pie.
