It just had to be done didn't it. 😎
A real childhood favourite of mine and a not so secret adult addiction too. A fishfinger butty along with crisp butties are just a brilliant, simple and oh so tasty snack meal. There's nothing 'wartime' about it, but as soon as I saw the pack of fishfingers that I bought as my 'meat ration' this week I knew what would be on the menu.
As per the menu, Monday was porridge for breakfast. The fish finger butties for lunch and then I fancied something a bit more substantial for my tea, as I knew I would when I wrote out the plan. Fish finger butties may be tasty but they are not that filling are they.
So I had a small 'roast dinner', and it was really tasty.
Just two Linda McCartney sausages, two little sage and onion stuffing patties, boiled potatoes and a handful of mixed vegetables, all topped off with a generous pour of Bisto gravy.
While I was making the boiled potatoes I made sure that there were enough extras to be able to mash them ready for Wednesday and Fridays meals, it's nice to get a little ahead with things.

First I had looked at what was left over from my first months rations ... a little rice, most of my lentils, pasta and dried fruit and about a serving and a half of oats. Not a bad starting point and then I chose the supplies in the top photo
Somehow this all feels so much more logical.
*Officially as they only cost me £1.75 I still have another £1.75 to spend, but I think I will leave it for this week and think a little more carefully about what I choose to buy with my £3.50 next week.
