Menu Planning 2

New Menu for the rest of the winter.

I always like to be more spontaneous and seasonal in the summer and will probably abandon this rotation after 3 goes round. There's quite a lot of comfort food here. Jack seems to be eating a massive amount at the moment. It's hard keeping up with him. It's not an especially 'light' or healthy diet and still has a considerable amount of cheese in it. Ugh. Maybe I'll be able to do without it as we go through the meals. It's really hard to keep a light, demi-veg diet going that isn't boring! Oh well. This will do for now. I'll probably tweak it as we go.
